A One-month-a-year Job
2 Kings 3-5
”Solomon also had twelve district governors who were over all Israel. They were responsible for providing food for the king’s household. Each of them arranged provisions for one month of the year.“ 1 Kings 4:7 NLT Only responsible for one month out of the year? Wonder if that was the only job they had all year long. Sounds interesting and intriguing. Cushy job if it only entailed working one month out of the year. Bet it was a coveted position, too.
”Give me an understanding heart so that I can govern Your people well and know the difference between right and wrong. For who by himself is able to govern this great people of Yours?”“ 1 Kings 3:9 NLT This is also a very powerful verse and intuitive to the heart of God.
