Bedtime Bible Boys 1 Kings Ch 11 (2.13.21) Thorn in the Flesh

Have you ever made the decision to repent, turn to follow the Lord in victory and feeling like a champion only a short while later falling to the same old enemy? Take comfort - you are in the same position as Paul, Solomon, and countless other prominent bible figures (along with everyone else who has been saved and decided to live a life in the spirit while trapped in the flesh). Kings chapter 11 reminds us that when we defeat our enemies (or the objects of our sin) we would be prudent to destroy and remove it completely from our life, lest the thorn in the flesh tempts us during our inevitable moments of future weakness. Come discuss this with the boys.
