" Preserved for a Purpose"

Chapters 11-12 show God preserving the line of David and calling His people back to worship. In 2 Kings 11, Athaliah tries to destroy the royal family, but Joash is hidden in the house of the Lord and later crowned king. In 2 Kings 12, Joash repairs the temple, but his reign also shows the danger of depending on godly influence without developing deep personal conviction . The simple truth is this: God knows how to preserve His promise even when evil tries to destroy it. Welcome to EveryDayWord — the daily podcast of the Derrick J.
