PEKAHIAH and PEKAH KING OF ISRAEL




Pekahiah, son of Menahem,became king after his father and he reigned for 2years. Like him father, he did evil in the sight of God. He was assassinated by Pekah one of his captains. 

LESSONS
a)     When a leader forsakes God’s ways, he is left to himself and he always ends up ruining himself. 

PEKAH, KING OF ISRAEL
Pekah  assassinated Menahem to become king of Israel, he continued in the sisn of Jeroboam by supporting false worship. During his reign, Tiglath-pilleser, king of Assyria came against some parts of Israel and took the people captive to Assyria. Hoshea the son of Elah conspired against Pekah and assassinated him after 20 years of his reign. 

LESSONS
a)     Judgement comes sooner or later, whatever we sow, we shall reap.
