2 Kings 15:8-38

Message Take Aways:

1. The reigns of King Zechariah & King Shallum demonstrate that those who live in opposition to the truth of God’s word will suffer violence—“There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.” Proverbs 14:12

2. The reigns of King Menahem, King Pekahiah, & King Pekah remind that a nation seeking to establish itself apart from the Lord will experience volatility and instability that will eventually lead to its demise—"Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, And rely on horses, Who trust in chariots because they are many, And in horsemen because they are very strong, But who do not look to the Holy One of Israel, Nor seek the LORD!” Isaiah 31:1

3. King Jotham reminds that a man who prepares his ways before the LORD will experience great victory in his life—“Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.” Psalm 37:5
