Definition-"Weasel"

Huldah was the wife of Shallum,She was a prophetess,and she was teacher.Huldah spoke forthrigthly and decisively to the people telling men that evil was to come upon them because they had forsaken God,they were wrapped up in the worship of Baal,a false God.When reading Huldah's story you will notice she says "Thus sayeth the Lord" alot meaning she was in tune with the Lord.Others fell to the idolatry but Huldah stood firm in God.Huldah must have known the word of God because she used and told others about it,it was hidden in her heart.Hilkiah and the men of God trusted her.

Huldah knew the word of God and renewed in her peoples mind,it convicted them and they tore down and cleaned out there houses removing the idols.Huldah was faithful and stood her ground when all others where falling into sin eventually turning their eyes back to God!What a remarkable woman!

Lessons we can learn from Huldah:

~Stay in tune with God

~Hide God's word in your heart
