2 Chronicles 26-27 – Uzziah’s Pride
King Uzziah begins well in his reign, but soon began to think he was the reason for his success. He became prideful and overstepped his boundaries. And the Lord had to deal with Him by some interesting means. It’s a reminder for us that God is our strength, and He should get all the glory for all we do.
Ezekiel 32-35 – The Word And The Watchman
Ezekiel continues to prophecy against the nations around Israel who were feeling strong and secure. But because of their pride, God will humble them. And God reminds Ezekiel that his role is to be a watchman, warning people repent and turn to the Lord and experience His grace.
2 Chronicles 25 – Having A Loyal Heart
King Amaziah comes on to the scene and it says he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, but not with a loyal heart. And that made all the difference in the world. He was led into compromise and eventually puffed up with pride. A divided heart will lead you into unnecessary trouble.
2 Chronicles 23-24 – The Ups And Downs Of Joash
Joash was a king in Judah that started off well but didn’t have so great of a finish. What happened? We’ll take a look at this in our study and examine some things we need to be careful of as well.
Ezekiel 28-31 – The Problem Of Pride
We continue to look at a couple nations surrounding Israel that were soon going to feel the hand of the Lord against them. Their common struggle was that of pride. They began to consider themselves a god rather than rely on the One True God. And thinks won’t work out so well for them.
2 Chronicles 21-22 – Two Kings And A Queen
Jehoram and then Ahaziah reign in Judah and they continue to carry out wickedness and suffer in the process. And then Ahaziah’s mother, Athaliah, steps to the throne after wiping out all but one of her grandchildren. Ruthless practices that will not bring about any kind of blessing or benefit.
