<p class="MsoNormal">Daily Dose of Hope</p> <p class="MsoNormal">June 17, 2026</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Scripture: 1 Kings 13</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Prayer:<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> Dear Heavenly Father, I come before you today with humility.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> You are holy, you are perfect, and I am painfully flawed.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> Forgive me, Lord, for the way I fall short over and over again.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> Forgive me for not being loving, patient, and kind.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> Jesus, I want to follow your example.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> I want to have a clean and pure heart.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> How I need you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> Create in me a pure heart, Lord, and renew a right spirit within me.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> I love you.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> Amen.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast that complements the New Hope daily Bible reading plan.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> We are currently working our way through 1 Kings.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> Yesterday, we read about how the divided Kingdom began – with one arrogant, ego-driven king who decided to listen to really poor counsel.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Today's reading is 1 Kings 13.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> We read about Jeroboam, the king in the Northern Kingdom yesterday.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> Things have gotten really bad.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> It seems he has instituted his own cult in Israel. There are pagan gods and altars everywhere.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> While the chapter doesn't specifically say this, idolatry usually coincides with other sin too.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal">We read about a prophet visiting Jeroboam.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> He warns him of the consequences of his disobedience.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> What are the consequences? Well, a new king, Josiah, will rise up.<span style= "mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span> And Josiah will clean up the pagan altars, kill the pagan priests, and punish Jeroboam. As a sign of the authenticity of the prophet's message, he says that the altar by which Jeroboam was standing would split in two. Jeroboam isn't thrilled with this message, of course, and attempts to get the man seized but God intervenes. Jeroboam's hand is paralyzed and then, just as the man prophesied, the altar splits and the ashes pour out. Yes, the message is all true; there is no doubt it will come to pass.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal">This is a bit of an odd chapter. The man of God who visited Jeroboam ends up with an untimely death because of disobedience himself. You see, no matter who you are, there are always consequences to sin. Always. We live on the other side of the cross and while we can repent and receive forgiveness, we still often must face the consequences of our own bad choices: debt, divorce, job loss, relationship issues, and damage to the Kingdom.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Think of an example of when your sin caused consequences you deeply regretted. How did the situation play out? Was there healing and restoration OR are you continuing to deal with the pain of sin? Whatever the situation, submit it to God today.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Blessings,</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Pastor Vicki</p>
