2 Chronicles 35-36: From Exile to Hope
From spiritual forgetfulness to dangerous blind spots, the ancient stories about King Josiah and the fall of Judah in 2 Chronicles 35-36 transcend time and reveal timeless patterns of human nature and God's persistent love. They inspired and taught the returning exiles, and they speak directly to challenges we face today.
Themes of this podcast:
The power of remembering our redemption. During difficult seasons of life, it’s easy to forget our past victories and God's faithfulness. But just as Josiah organized the greatest Passover in 400 years to help people remember their freedom from Egypt, we need regular practices that remind us of what God has done in our lives.
Wake up to where you're headed. God was trying to visibly wake the people up as they watched their kings carried off to captivity. We all experience lapses in faith when we are blind to our own sin. And God calls to us...wake up, wake up! What are you doing? Look at where you are headed! This challenges us to honestly assess the trajectory of our choices and listen when God is warning us through circumstances, wise counsel, or His Word.
Responding to God's invitation to "go up." Just as Cyrus invites the exiles to "go up" out of slavery to Jerusalem and rebuild the Temple, Christ's invitation to us is to "go up" out of spiritual darkness and slavery to sin. Both required a choice to say "yes" to God's call. God is constantly inviting us into a deeper relationship with Him, into freedom from whatever enslaves us, and into becoming who He created us to be. The question remains: Will we respond with our "yes"?
