2 Kings 10:30-31
New Living Translation (NLT)
30 Nonetheless the Lord said to Jehu, “You have done well in following my instructions to destroy the family of Ahab. Therefore, your descendants will be kings of Israel down to the fourth generation.” 31 But Jehu did not obey the Law of the Lord, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He refused to turn from the sins that Jeroboam had led Israel to commit.
Jehu did much of what the Lord told him to, but he did not obey Him with all his heart. He had become God's instrument for carrying out justice, but he had not become God's servant. As a result, he gave only lip service to God. Check the condition of your heart toward God. We can be very active in our work for God and still not give the heartfelt obedience He desires.
