2 Kings 13: An end of an earthly era, but the covenant continues forever.

Rev. Gregory Alms of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Catonsville, MD joins host Rev. Brady Finnern to study 2 Kings 13. The only hero in the Bible is God.  The kings, the Israelites, and even the prophet Elisha all meet their graves but today we see how God uses lowly means to show His resurrection.  In all the chaos of Israel and Judah, we hear of the LORD who listens to the plea of the king.  He not only listened, but answered his prayer for deliverance.  Our LORD listens to us.  In faith, we ask for His grace for each day as we always have the hope of the resurrection as our foundation.  “Lord God, the grave stares at each one of us, but You are the hero who has conquered that grave and listens to our pleas for mercy today.  Help us O LORD, and keep us in Your gracious arms.  In Christ, Amen”
