Reading Chronicles~ bleh! Not the most fascinating for me, to put it mildly. However, the timing is ironic. Voting day~ the reading for the last few days has been about the leaders of the countries and how Their choices influenced the people, how the leadership of a country, whether for or Against God, very clearly directs the choices of the people.
Time after time, when the king was all excited about God, the Whole nation repented and were enthusiastic about following Him, yet as soon as the king was replaced by a liberal king, everything Very quickly returned to paganism and idolatry. Even if the king were not Evil, per say, just liberal ~allowing the local neighborhoods to maintain the shrines etc ~ the people fell right back into the practices that they had previously rejected.
I found this to be especially relevant at this particular time in our country! We haven't Yet experienced such a Rapid descent into paganism and occultism as the Israelite countries did at the time, but once it starts, it's an incredibly quick slide into the ugliest slime. Sadly, America is Not the chosen people of God to start with, so I can't think that this country would be afforded the grace and mercy He continually showed to the Israelites. Looks to me like we are headed for Big trouble!
