Bible Survey: Part Twoনমুনা
Like Joash, Amaziah is a mixture of good and bad. He listens to God when he is told not to rely on mercenaries, but fails to listen when God tells him not to rely on idols. The king of Israel identifies his problem as one of pride. After defeating one enemy, he believes he is more powerful than he actually is.
Amaziah falls into a trap that can be a problem for anyone. A person can ask for God’s help in a difficult situation and when things turn out well, believe they are the one who succeeded and not increase their dependence on God. Even those with the best of intentions can fall victim to their own pride.
