The story of king Asa seems so typical. He obeyed and relied on the Lord, and he received blessing and peace from the God; and then when things is doing well under God blessing, when little problems comes, King Asa turned away and relied on human knowledge instead of God, and then Asa lost everything.
The morel of the story is to tell us that no matter in poor or in rich, we should seek God all our ways, and rely on Him, and He will make our path straight.
But my question is, does everyone has to go through all this circle of relying God and turn away from God? Can we just reply on God all our ways forever? Why does human turned so easily? Answer is our sinful nature rooted with us. We have pride and desire that only pleasing to ourself; and all that leads to death.
Trusting God is a life long journey. Because of our weaknesses, God told us to have fellowship with those who loves God, so that we can support each other. We also need to learn discipline. Remember we were born nothing, and will take nothing out from the earth. What really matter in life is love; because God is love; and to have relationship with this creator God who love.
