Thursday, April 3

Trembling at men is a snare, but the one trusting in Jehovah will be protected.—Prov. 29:25.

 

High Priest Jehoiada feared Jehovah. This was evident when Jezebel’s daughter, Athaliah, usurped the throne in Judah. She was ruthless and so greedy for power that she tried to murder the entire royal line—her own grandsons! (2 Chron. 22:10, 11) One of those children—Jehoash—survived because Jehoiada’s wife, Jehoshabeath, rescued him. She and her husband hid the child and took care of him. In this way Jehoiada and Jehoshabeath helped preserve the Davidic line of kings. Jehoiada was loyal to Jehovah and did not tremble in fear of Athaliah. When Jehoash was seven years old, Jehoiada again proved his loyalty to Jehovah. He formed a plan. If it succeeded, Jehoash would become king, David’s rightful heir. If the plan failed, however, Jehoiada would almost certainly lose his life. With Jehovah’s blessing, the plan succeeded. w23.06 17 ¶12-13

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.
