KINGS AND RULERS THE LORD SET THEM UP AND ALSO REMOVES THEM

 

PROVERBS THE KINGS HEART IS IN THE HAND OF  THE LORD, LIKE THE RIVERS OF WATER; HE TURNS IT WHEREVER HE WISHES.  IN ANCIENT TIMES, NATIONS OFTEN CALLED THEIR KINGS GODS. NONE COULD CALL THEM TO ACCOUNT. 

DEUT. 17:20 THE KING MUST NOT CONSIDER HIMSELF BETTER THAN HIS BROTHERS AND TURN FROM THE LAW TO THE RIGHT OR TO THE LEFT. 

SAUL IS THE FIRST KING OF THE KINGDOM OF ISRAEL AND JUDAH. DAVID AS THE SECOND KING. KING SOLOMON WAS RICH AND CLEVER. 

SAUL WAS DETHRONED BECAUSE HE HAD SELFISH AMBITIONS AND DID NOT WANT TO LISTEN TO THE LORD. DAVID WAS A MAN AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART WHO WAS BRAVE ENOUGH TO TAKE DOWN A BIG GIANT NAMED GOLIATH AS A YOUNG BOY, EVEN THOUGH HE DID THAT HE HAD A WEAKNESS FOR ANOTHER MAN'S WIFE.

SOLOMON WAS VERY WISE RICH AND BUSINESS SAAVY BUT HE WENT AFTER PAGAN WOMEN WHO FOLLOWED OTHER GODS.  

THESE PEOPLE WERE KINGS IN THE WORLD. THE LORD OF LORD AND KING OF KINGS IS SOVERIGN. THOSE PEOPLE RLED OVER EARTHLY THINGS BUT THE LORD RULES OVER ALL CREATION. HE IS THE RULER OF ALL IN ALL AND OF ALL. HE SETS UP KINGS AND REMOVES THEM AS WELL.

DANIEL 2:21

AND HE CHANGETH THE TIMES AND SEASONS; HE REMOVES KINGS AND ESTABLISHES THEM. HE GIVES WISDOM UNTO THE WISE, AND KNOWLEDGE TO THOSE WHO HAVE UNDERSTANDING
