A Light in a Dark Time - 2 Kings 22:1–2
from The Whole Counsel With Pastor Thom · host Pastor Thom
History records that some of the greatest leaders arose in the bleakest hours. Josiah’s “tap on the shoulder” came when he was only eight years old. Imagine that, just a child, yet placed on the throne of Judah, surrounded by corruption, idolatry, and national decline.The Word of God says in 2 Kings 22:1–2 "Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath. And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left."Even in the darkest of hours, God raised up a young king who chose to walk in righteousness.This is the lesson we must not miss: our past does not dictate our future, and our present surroundings do not have to define our faith. God is still able to raise up men, women, and even children who will shine as lights in the darkness. God can raise up a faithful heart even in the darkest of times.
