Last time I wrote about Solomon ,who was a great king for most of his reign, it appears that God was very patient with him but in the end God said enough,is enough.It need not have been like that in 2 Chronicles 7 ,after the dedication of the temple,God appeared to him and spoke to him.The first part of the chapter is about God responding to Solomon's prayer at the dedication of the temple,the second is the importance of obeying God and the consequences of disobedience which would be very serious for him and the nation. In spite of that he did not take it serious enough, but instead gradually moved away from God,His ways and His will.Think about disobedience and its terrible consequence,it all started with Adam and Eve,and so we the children of Adam have followed in our first parents footsteps.Look at this world ,why are so many awful things happening?,the answer is mankind is living in disobedience to God,falsehood abounds in all sided's we should never be surprised at awful things happening, just look into our own hearts. Here is a word for us Christians, obey God, if we don't ,there will be consequences,but the good news is God is still in the business of forgiveness. If you are not a Christian repent and turn to Jesus He will forgive you,and bring you from the road that leads to destruction, and put you on the road that leads to heaven not to hell.
