1Ki 13:33 | MHM | STEP | v. 33-34 : Despite these warnings and miracles, Jeroboam did not turn away from his evil ways. He continued his idolatry and even made anyone who wanted to be a priest, no matter their background. This sin became a trap for Jeroboam’s family and led to their downfall (1 Kings 13:33-34 ). Sin never brings security; instead, it brings trouble and loss. This story teaches us that obedience to God’s commands is very important. Disobedience, even in small things, can have serious consequences. We must also be careful who we listen to and always check if what they say matches God’s word. In the end, God’s word will stand, even if the people who deliver it fail.
