2 Kings 15:4
The high places, however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there.
Shalom sdr, my devotion today, Thu, Sept. 2, HIGH PLACES (II Kg. 15:4). High places were the places of worshipping Baals. High places were not only in 1 place. There were at least 2 high places. Why they loved the high places so much? Kings and things might be replaced, but the high places were still there. There were no proof that the high places could help them, but they loved deeply. The proof of their strong love:
1. Although the Baal could do nothing.
They needed to be helped in everything. They could not help anything. Not even 1 incident, which Baal had helped them.
2. Although so many of the leaders had been executed.
We remember at the time of Elijah, 850 Baal prophets were killed. But the new Baal prophets appeared quickly.
3. Although God had warned and prohibited them again and again.
God never allowed them to worship them. By mentioning this verse, we know that God never changed his law, will and decree. God always want to have our heart for himself alone. So, let’s give our heart to God. ASH.
