“Seek God and Be Strong”

Second Chronicles 14–15 records a powerful period of spiritual renewal under King Asa.Asa became king after Abijah and chose to pursue what was good and right before the Lord. He removed idols, destroyed pagan worship sites, commanded Judah to seek God, and used a season of peace to strengthen the nation.Then an enormous Ethiopian army came against Judah.Asa was badly outnumbered, but instead of trusting only in military strength, he cried out to God.The Lord gave Judah a great victory.Chapter 15 then records a prophetic message from Azariah reminding Asa and the nation that the Lord would be with them as long as they sought Him.Asa responded by removing idols, repairing the altar, gathering the people, and renewing their covenant commitment to God.These chapters teach us to seek God before the crisis, use seasons of peace wisely, remove spiritual idols, remain courageous, and trust God when the opposition appears overwhelming.Welcome to EveryDayWord — the daily podcast of Derrick J.
