The lesson contrasts Jehoshaphat’s commitment to God with his alliance alongside Ahab, warning that partnerships with those who reject God can lead away from right and wrong. Bible passages from I Kings 22 and II Chronicles 17 are used to guide learning, reflection, and review questions, connecting the theme to seeking God in all decisions through the message in II Corinthians 6:14 and the invitation to know Jesus through Romans 10:9-10 and John 14:6.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/old-testament-lesson-41-a-king-walks-with-god/387002/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/old-testament-lesson-41-a-king-walks-with-god/387002.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"8796093062539","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-22","2026-09-24",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":19},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"Who was Jehoshaphat?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"Jehoshaphat was the son of King Asa, ruling over Judah.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"What did Jehoshaphat do to show he was committed to God?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"He lived according to God’s ways, followed the Lord’s commands, removed idolatry practices, and sent priests to teach the Law.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"Why is Jehoshaphat’s friendship with Ahab presented as a problem?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"Ahab was not a good king, and the lesson warns that partnerships with those who reject God are not right and can lead to harmful choices.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},387002,1791761056,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":66,"doc_module":4,"category_id":19,"category_name":20,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":133,"file_id":134,"file_url":135,"file_type":136,"file_size":137,"view_count":19,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":138,"language":139,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":140,"faqs":141,"seo_title":142,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":143,"read_time":144,"preview_page_count":4},8796093062539,"Created for use with young, unchurched learners Adaptable for all ages including adults  \nOld Testament  \nMISSION ARLINGTON MISSION METROPLEX  \nLESSON 41  \nOld Testament  \n\n| A King Walks with God\u003Cbr>Jehoshaphat |\n| --- |\n| I Kings 22, II Chronicles 17 |\n| A King Walks with God I Kings 22:1--18 |\n| Memory Verse: Don't become partners with those who reject God.

Recognize that Jehoshaphat’s friendship with Ahab was not a good thing. |\n\nLast week we learned about King Asa who reigned over Judah. He got rid of the idolsand did right in the eyes of the Lord. But Asa made a treaty with Be-had, an enemy of Israel. When God sent Hanani to tell Asa that he had failed to depend on God, Asa got angry and put Hanani in prison.  \nRead the Bible  \nREAD: I Kings 22:1--18 (Hold your Bible open throughout the story.)  \nBegin with Prayer  \nThis week we will learn about Jehoshaphat. He was the son of King Asa. He worked to make sure the kingdom of Judah was strong. He made the walls around Judah high. He placed soldiers in Judah and Ephraim. Jehoshaphat “lived the way King David lived.”(II Chronicles 17:1-3 NIrV) He didn’t worship idols nor did he ask for advice from idols. Jehoshaphat followed God the way his father, Asa, had done. He followed the commands of the Lord. The people of Judah brought gifts so Jehoshaphat had great wealth and honor. Jehoshaphat was committed to living the way God wanted him to live. He tore down the altars to other gods. He also tore down the poles used to worship Asherah. God made the kingdom secure. (II Chronicles 17:4-6)  \nJehoshaphat asked the Levites and priests to teach the Scroll of the Law to the people of Judah. So they went from town to town in Judah teaching the people. The kingdoms around Judah would not go to war against them because they became afraid of God. (II Chronicles 17:7- 10)  \nAhab ruled in Israel, the kingdom with ten tribes. But he was not a good king. (I Kings 16:30-33) For three years Israelites did not have war with Aram. Jehoshaphat went to Israel to see Ahab. Since Ahab was not a good king it was probably not a good idea that Jehoshaphat visit him. Sometimes friends can be a bad influence (not good for us) . Sometimes we can be a good influence on people who don’t know about God. The Bible tells us to be careful about who our friends are.“Don't become partners with those who reject God. How can you make a partnership out of right and wrong? That's not partnership; that's war. Is light best friends with dark? Does Christ go strolling with the Devil? Do trust and mistrust hold hands?”(II Corinthians 6:14 The Message)  \nAhab asked Jehoshaphat to fight with him against Aram so that he could get the town of Ramoth Gilead back.

There were about 400 prophets. They all said that Ahab should go to war and that the Lord would give him victory. But Jehoshaphat asked, \"Isn't there a prophet of the Lord here? If there is, ask him what we should do.\" (I Kings 22:6-7 NIrV) Ahab told Jehoshaphat that there was one other man, Micaiah.
