Jehová está con ustedes mientras ustedes resulten estar con él (2 Cró. 15:2).
Las reformas que llevó a cabo el rey Asá unieron al pueblo. Él convocó una gran asamblea en Jerusalén a la que asistieron tanto sus súbditos como muchas personas del reino del norte, Israel. Allí, todos juntos se comprometieron a servir con lealtad a Dios. La Biblia dice: “Juraron a Jehová [...]. Y todo Judá se entregó a regocijo debido a lo que se había jurado; porque era con todo su corazón como habían jurado, y con pleno placer de parte de ellos como lo habían buscado, de modo que él se dejó hallar por ellos; y Jehová continuó dándoles descanso todo en derredor” (2 Cró. 15:9-15). Nosotros podemos estar seguros de que Jehová también nos dará su bendición si le servimos de todo corazón (Mar. 12:30). Lamentablemente, tiempo después, Asá se ofendió por una reprensión que recibió de Hananí, un hombre de visiones (2 Cró. 16:7-10). Hoy día, Jehová usa a los ancianos para aconsejarnos. ¿Cómo reaccionamos cuando nos dan consejos basados en la Biblia? ¿Los aceptamos de buena gana, o nos ofendemos?

Jehovah is with you as long as you prove to be with him.—2 Chron. 15:2.
King Asa’s reforms united the people of Judah as well as a great number of people from the kingdom of Israel who came down to join in a grand assembly at Jerusalem. Together they declared their determination to worship Jehovah loyally. We read: “They swore to Jehovah. . . . And all Judah gave way to rejoicing over the thing sworn; for it was with all their heart that they had sworn and with full pleasure on their part that they had looked for him, so that he let himself be found by them; and Jehovah continued to give them rest all around.” (2 Chron. 15:9-15) Jehovah will likewise surely bless us when we serve him wholeheartedly. (Mark 12:30) Sadly, Asa later resented correction from Hanani the seer. (2 Chron. 16:7-10) How do we react when Jehovah offers us advice or direction through Christian elders? Do we promptly take to heart their Scripturally based counsel and avoid falling into the trap of resentment?
Examining the Bible Scriptures Daily, Such instructions gave Jesus ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ so that he would ‘know how to answer the tired one with a word.’ (Isa. 30:20; 50:4; Matt. 11:28-30) Being awakened to timely counsel from the Word of God each morning will not only help you to cope with your own problems but also equip you with ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ to help others.”
