City On A Hill

2 Chronicles 13-15

Civil war? What a terribly sad time for the people of God.

It really seems like Abijah was boasting, but they believe in the true God, so God gave them a grave and mighty victory.

Asa rocks, except that he didn't remove the high places. How did those things keep coming back?

An army of a million men (a million)...

Defeated (defeated)!

How many times did God use men like Azariah to tell his people to just follow and worship the true God?

Their history bore out their prosperity when they followed and their great hardship when they turned away.

I don't mean that they should have followed for the blessings, but at that time God desired them to flourish, but they would so easily turn away from Him.

Psalm 20
That is a beautiful Psalm, especially in the desire for others to be blesesd.

And where our trust lies.

Matthew 25
Parables...

About the virgins... Be ready! not so much in doing anything other then placeing you faith in Jesus Christ, as the oil for our lamps is the Holy Spirit.

With the talents... Share the gospel!!!

What an amazing thing to be part of the good news, for those that never heard it, and those that need to hear it everyday.

With the final judgement...
God will judge.
Share the Gospel!
Serve others!

From verse 41
“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
The eternal fire was prepare for the Devil and his angels.
What will you do with that bit of knowledge?

Just a thought...
Share the Gospel!
