Devotional Thoughts about 1 Kings Chapters 11 and 12
We’re all susceptible to peer pressure—not just kids. And even intelligent people aren’t exempt from it. Solomon was a universal genius with an extreme level of wisdom as well as expert knowledge in several fields of natural science (see 1 Kings 4:29-34). But sure enough, Deuteronomy 17:17 turned out to be as prophetic for him as it did for many of his descendants.
Kids are especially impressionable, and as they progress through the pre-teen years, their friends’ approval is becoming more and more important to them. Some don’t even have friends and are desperate to attract anyone at all. Because many can’t imagine where a bad influence could lead them, it’s hard to convince them of the danger.
Lord, please help us to set an example by focusing our own lives on You. And help us show kids from the Bible that Your approval is the most important.
