What were the fates of the kings of the north and south, Jeroboam and Rehoboam?

Ahijah foretold the disaster and downfall of the house of Jeroboam.
He reigned for twenty-two years and Nadab his son succeeded him as king.
Rehoboam, son of Solomon reigned in Judah for seventeen years. Judah did evil in the eyes of the Lord.
In the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt attacked Jerusalem. He carried off the treasures of the temple of the Lord and the treasures of the royal palace.
Rehoboam died and was buried in the City of David. Abijah his son succeeded him as king.

Community - Prophet Ahijah pointed out to Jeroboam the consequence of his sin. Is there anyone in my life who can help point out my weaknesses? Have I listened to them?
Integrity - Israel was strong while Solomon reigned but gradually declined in the hands of his son Rehoboam. How should I pass on the blessings to the next generation? How should I keep myself disciplined so the blessings passed onto me are not lost?
