2 Chronicles 17-20: Jehoshaphat, Faithful King, Foolish Alliance
Join us for this episode where we see trusting God’s Word leads to lasting strength. But when fear fuels our choices, compromise can sneak in and leave a legacy we never intended.
Themes of this podcast:
Faithfulness doesn't need to be flawless. Jehoshaphat was a good and godly king, but not a perfect one. His story reminds us even faithful people can make foolish choices, and those choices can have generational consequences. Still, God’s mercy is bigger than our missteps.
God’s Word builds strong foundations. When Jehoshaphat sent out teachers with the Law, revival followed. This wasn’t flashy leadership, it was faithful leadership. The Word of God, when taught and received, brings strength, peace, and God’s favor to a nation.
Compromise has a ripple effect. Jehoshaphat’s alliance with Ahab looked strategic, but it sowed seeds of destruction. One compromised relationship led to idolatry, loss, and nearly wiped out the Davidic line. Fear-driven decisions often lead us far from faith.
