Jehu was the tenth king of the north. He, although violent, was used by God to bring judgment upon a number of evil people, including Jezebel. He also rejected and destroyed Baal worship in his kingdom. But he did not leave the path of Jeroboam. God made promises to him for the good things that he did (v. 30), but he still did not serve God with his whole heart (v. 31). I am sure that it would be good for us to meditate on how easy it is to please God by doing right, how important it is to give Him our whole heart, and how unimportant it is to judge Jehu (Matthew 7:1-5).
