Greed In the Household Proverbs 6:16-19;1 Kings 21:1-29 Naboth owned a vineyard in the little village of Jezreel around eight miles from Megiddo. Naboth’s vineyard was right next to the King’s royal gardens. So, when the king looked to expand his garden, he wished to have Naboth’s vineyard.
Naboth believed in sacred places that were not for sale. Naboth was a man of conviction and how we need more men and women of conviction. Naboth loves God, loves his nation, and loves his family.
No one’s sin is done in isolation. The Blast Radius of Greed could affect your entire household. A godly woman can be a powerful source of inspiration for her family, but a wicked woman possesses a profound motivation for evil in her family’s life. This is a weak-willed man who knew better, but he did not raise a hand to stop this evil plan. Men, have the courage to be godly in our day.
