1 & 2 Kings (Program #15) – The Reign of Azariah, Jotham, and Ahuz over Judah
The history of Israel and the various kings over Israel is recorded in the book of Kings and 1 Chronicles and other history books reveals again and again how Israel and its kings failed God and His expressed intention for them as His people. Yet even when their failure reached extraordinary levels forcing God to temporarily abandon the nation of Israel, there always remain a line of faithful ones. Ones that would stand with God for His purpose and for His testimony. The prophets were such ones, prophets like Nathan and Elijah, Elisha and even Isaiah. The New Testament has a name for such ones; it is overcomers. In the book of Revelation, this title appears seven times, most of which sounding like this reference in Revelation 2:7, “he who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches, to him who overcomes, to him I will give to eat the tree of life which is in the paradise of God.”
