2 Chronicles 10-13

“If you are kind to these people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they will be your servants forever.”

This is really straightforward advice for a leader, given by seasoned counsellors, based on experience. Rehoboam ignored it, but we should heed it.

I absolutely love Abijah's declaration of faith in God in the face of Jeroboam. He is outnumbered and outmanouveured and yet as Judah shout, he is victorious through the God of David!
