Introduction:  The story of the southern kingdom of Judah continues with the plot to remove the wicked Athaliah, daughter of Ahab and Jezebel of Israel, with a rightful heir to the throne: a descendant of King David.

Putting the Word into Action
In this time of Judah's history kings often began well but ended badly when power went to their heads. Not only do we need to pray for anyone in authority over us, but we need to assess ourselves in the areas where we are the power in authority over others. Almost everyone of any age has someone or something, (ie. a pet) that answers to them. It's time for a heart and attitude check! Pray for those under you and ask God to help you to interact with them in justice, kindness, and respect.
