The Unrelenting God
Contributed on Jun 23, 2018
God did not give up on Ahaz, despite his idolatry and unbelief. God came to him through prophet Isaiah, assuring him and urging him to trust Him.

Spiritual Indifference
Contributed on May 20, 2018
Jehoash showed little interest in what he was told to do. He was going through the motions but with little faith. He did not take God seriously or the Word of God seriously. Elisha was the one who showed faith in God.

The Undeserving Rescue
Contributed on May 15, 2018
God responded to the prayer of an ungodly king because He saw the oppression of His people and came to their rescue. God is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in love.
