But when he had become powerful, he also became proud, which led to his downfall.
He sinned against the lord his God by entering the sanctuary of the lord’s Temple and personally burning incense on the incense altar.
King Jotham became powerful because he was careful to live in obedience to the lord his God.
Lord God,
you alone hold all things good. Lord God may I live under your authority alone. Father may I obey your desire and make it my own. May I delight in following you.
In Jesus name,
Amen
