The Story of God: The Promise a Wicked Witch Couldn't Kill | Week 6 | Save the Cowboy

God made a promise to King David that his bloodline would sit on the throne of Israel forever. That promise was called the Davidic Covenant — and for 325 years, it was tested by 20 kings, hostile nations, and one wicked queen who came within one baby of ending it entirely. In this message, Pastor Kevin Weatherby walks through all 20 kings of the southern kingdom of Judah — their strengths, their failures, how they lived, and how they died. Some were great. Most were not. And one evil woman named Athaliah — the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel — seized the throne and tried to kill every royal heir in the house of David. She thought she had extinguished the line. She was wrong. One infant was hidden by his aunt in the storerooms of the temple, and the promise of God survived.
