Renewed Censoccation to Qod ( j ,
Tills was tho very occasion for which ' E
Asa had made preparation during his ten { 9'
years,of peace. He went, forth .with his mm
S.mir to bekVthS invader. Nevertheless. M

Returning from the victory with hearts S
; grateful to God they were met en the way H i
by a Prophet?Asarlah?who In the name
of the Lord counselled the king and his peo- ftj1
pie that they had all done well and faith- Hj
fully, and that, therefore. God's blessing t 01
as with them, and that the continuance Ci
<* Divine blessing would depend upon BBi
their faithfulness to God and to the re* ?
winmeeto of his Law. B
The Divine warning helped the King (|5
and his people to appreciate the situation < a
and to take a firmer stand than ever for i 3
right eeuaneaa. A second and more thor- ! 1 fe

Lessons We May Learn n01
Nearly every page in history may teach j
lesson* to those who are desirous of learn- ; ter
log them The experiences of King Asa
'way. for Instance, give us a lesson that '
In the years of our youth we should prop- :
erly put away all Idolatry of money, of '
fame, of honor of men. and should seek W8
to know and lo do the will of the Lord ,
from the heart. tn(
In tho early yeara of life we should
oreot the fortresses of character which ;
will serve us as a defence against at- i Fl(
t?:k* of the world, the flesh and the
Devil in our later years, and when the J
Mttie comes, thus prepared, we are still o+.
t? look to the Lord for victory, realizing
the force of the Apostle's words. "When : C01
