2 Chronicles 27 - Jotham's Reign in Judah | Bible Podcast, David Alley, Peace Christian Church

In this video listen to 2 Chronicles Chapter 27, read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer.In 2 Chronicles 27 we have a very short chapter about King Jotham. Its says very little other than that he followed in the ways of the Lord and did a few things. One question remains, If Jotham followed in the ways of the Lord, why did he only reign sixteen years? This means he died at 41. We don’t know the answer to this..The Chronicler seems only to care about what mattered to the Lord, so nothing much about this king is said at all. This reminds us of a famous poem by CT STudd, and here is the first section.“Two little lines I heard one day,Travelling along life’s busy way;Bringing conviction to my heart,And from my mind would not depart;Only one life, ’twill soon be past,Only what’s done for Christ will last.All that is recorded about Jotham is effectively his relationship to the Lord. All that matters is what he did for Christ so to speak. And the same is all that matters for us.
