This lesson explores the ministry of Elisha as recorded in 2 Kings 9–10, emphasizing God’s sovereign judgment on Israel through Jehu. Jehu is anointed king and carries out God’s will by purging Ahab’s dynasty and eradicating Baal worship from Israel. The narrative underlines that while Jehu was used by God to fulfill prophecy, his heart was not fully devoted to the Lord. He failed to remove the golden calves from Bethel and Dan, showing partial obedience. The lesson highlights God's justice and mercy, showing that He keeps His word both in judgment and blessing. It challenges believers to not only act for God but also walk faithfully with Him in personal devotion.
