So he died according to the word of the LORD that Elijah had spoken. Jehoram became king in his place in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, because Ahaziah had no son.
2 Kings 1:17
God used men
to spread His word
way back when
His people Israel all lived
in the Promised Land.
Unusual men
who did as God said
lived for Him
and carried messages
throughout that land.
Prophets and sages
spoke only God's message
and now recorded in pages
we can read the story
of faith through the ages.
Prophets spoke His word
and the message resounded
to all those who heard
God's power was known
and worship came to the Lord.
Decisions were made
people ignored or obeyed
the Word of God stayed
before them even when pagan
infatuation led them astray
God still used men
-- hairy cloaked prophets --
and these unusual men
were givers of truth
in Israel's land.
