I am very sorry about this, but the message was cut after 11 minutes.  My recording device ran out of memory.

 

2 Kings 17:13 THE LORD WARNED ISRAEL AND JUDAH THROUGH ALL HIS PROPHETS and seers: “Turn from your evil ways. Observe my commands and decrees, in accordance with the entire Law that I commanded your fathers to obey and that I delivered to you through my servants the prophets.”

 

2 Chronicles 24:19 (NET) The Lord sent prophets among them to lead them back to him. THEY WARNED THE PEOPLE, but they would not pay attention.

 

2 Chronicles 36:16 (NET) But they mocked God’s messengers, despised his warnings, and ridiculed his prophets. FINALLY the Lord got very angry at his people and there was no one who could prevent his JUDGMENT.

 

2 Kings 17:23 (NET) FINALLY the Lord rejected Israel just as HE HAD WARNED he would do THROUGH ALL HIS SERVANTS THE PROPHETS. Israel was deported from its land to Assyria and remains there to this very day.

 

Colossians 1:28 Whom we preach, WARNING EVERY MAN, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

 

Acts 20:31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not TO WARN every one night and day with tears.

 

Hebrews 12:25 (ESV) See [be careful] that you do not refuse [disregard] him who is speaking. For if they did not escape when they refused him WHO WARNED them on earth, much less will we escape if we reject him WHO WARNS from heaven.

 

1 Kings 18:21 Elijah went before the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions? IF THE LORD IS GOD, FOLLOW HIM; BUT IF BAAL IS GOD, FOLLOW HIM.” But the people said nothing.

 

1 Kings 21:25 But THERE WAS NO ONE LIKE AHAB WHO SOLD HIMSELF TO DO WICKEDNESS in the sight of the Lord, because Jezebel his wife stirred him up.

 

1 Kings 19:14 He said, “I have been very jealous for the Lord, the God of hosts. For the people of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword, and I, even I only, am left, and they seek my life, to take it away.”

 

2 Kings 3:1–3 Now JEHORAM the son of Ahab BECAME KING OVER ISRAEL at Samaria in the eighteenth year of JEHOSHAPHAT KING OF JUDAH, and reigned twelve years. 2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, but not like his father and mother; for he put away the sacred pillar of Baal that his father had made.

3 Nevertheless HE PERSISTED IN THE SINS OF JEROBOAM the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin; he did not depart from them.

 

1 Kings 19:2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.”

 

1 Kings 19:15–16 And THE LORD SAID TO HIM, “Go, return on your way to the wilderness of Damascus. And when you arrive, you shall anoint Hazael to be king over Syria. 16 And Jehu the son of Nimshi you shall anoint to be king over Israel, and ELISHA the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah YOU SHALL ANOINT TO BE PROPHET IN YOUR PLACE.

 

1 Kings 19:19 So he [Elijah] departed from there, and FOUND ELISHA the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he was with the twelfth. THEN ELIJAH PASSED BY HIM AND THREW HIS MANTLE ON HIM.

 

Proverbs 12:24 The hand of the DILIGENT shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.

 

Proverbs 12:27 (NKJV) ″...diligence is man’s precious possession.″

 

1 Timothy 6:10 (NKJV) For THE LOVE OF MONEY is a root of all kinds of evil, FOR WHICH SOME HAVE STRAYED FROM THE FAITH in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

 

Matthew 13:22 Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and THE DECEITFULNESS OF RICHES CHOKE THE WORD, and he BECOMES UNFRUITFUL.

 

Titus 1:11 (NKJV) ″...teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of dishonest gain.″

 

Matthew 22:36–38 (NKJV)

36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?”

37 Jesus said to him, ‘You shall LOVE the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’

38 THIS IS THE FIRST and great commandment.

 

John 15:16 You did not choose Me, but I CHOSE YOU and appointed you that you should go and BEAR FRUIT, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

 

1 Kings 19:20-21

20 And HE LEFT THE OXEN AND RAN AFTER ELIJAH, and said, “Please let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you.” And he said to him, “Go back again, for what have I done to you?”

21 So Elisha turned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen and slaughtered them and boiled their flesh, using the oxen’s equipment, and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then HE AROSE AND FOLLOWED ELIJAH, and BECAME HIS SERVANT.

 

2 Kings 2:2 Elisha said, “As the Lord lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you!”

 

2 Kings 3:11 But Jehoshaphat said, “Is there no prophet of the Lord here, that we may inquire of the Lord by him?” So one of the servants of the king of Israel answered and said, “ELISHA the son of Shaphat is here, WHO POURED WATER ON THE HANDS OF ELIJAH.”

 

Matthew 23:11 But he who is GREATEST among you SHALL BE YOUR SERVANT.

 

Philippians 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in LOWLINESS OF MIND let each esteem other better than themselves.

 

Proverbs 3:34 Surely he scorneth the scorners: But he giveth grace unto the lowly.

 

Proverbs 11:2 When pride cometh, then cometh shame: But with the lowly is wisdom.
