Three years as king. One very long speech on a mountain.
Son of Rehoboam and Maacah, Rehoboam’s favourite wife. King of Judah for three years. I stood on a mountain and told the north exactly why they’d lose.
JerusalemFirst seen 1 Kings 14:31
Listen, Jeroboam and all Israel. Don’t you know the LORD gave the kingdom to David and his sons for ever, by a covenant of salt, an agreement that can’t be broken? You’ve got a huge army, and the golden calves Jeroboam made you for gods. You drove out the LORD’s priests. Now anyone who turns up with a young bull and seven rams can be a priest of things that aren’t gods.

God is with us, leading us. Israel, don’t fight the LORD, the God of your ancestors. You won’t win.
