S: Collosian 3:23 - Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, 24since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. 25Anyone who does wrong will be repaid for his wrong, and there is no favoritism.O: (1) Ben-Hadad king of Aram attacks Ahab king of Israel in Samaria (2) Ahab Defeats Ben-Hadad with The Lord's power (3) Ahab sold himself to do evil in the eyes of the LORD, urged on by Jezebel his wife just to take over Naboth's Vineyard. Because Ahab has humbled himself, The Lord did not bring disaster in his days, but brought it on his house in the days of his son. (4) The LORD was with Jehoshaphat because he walked in the ways his father David had followed. He sought the God of his father and followed his commands rather than the practices of evils. The LORD established the kingdom under his control; and all Judah brought gifts to Jehoshaphat, so that he had great wealth and honor. His heart was devoted to the ways of the LORD
A: (1) Ben-Hadad was punished because of his evil deeds. Ahab won the war because he followed God's command and so did Jehoshaphat. Ahab was forgiven for this wrong deed because he repent.
R: (1) Rid ourselves of all evil doings/wrong doings.
(2) Put on a new self, which is being renewed in the image of the Creator.
(3) Have compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
(4) Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances have against one another.
(5) Whatever we do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
