Today’s reading delivers both a sobering warning and an inspiring example. A prophet receives clear instructions from God—but disobeys after believing a lie, leading to his death. It's a striking reminder that when God speaks clearly, partial obedience isn’t obedience at all. Meanwhile, moral decay continues to plague the kingdoms of Israel and Judah—until Asa rises to power in Judah. He removes idols, reforms worship, and leads with a heart fully devoted to God. When a million-man army from Ethiopia threatens his land, Asa doesn’t panic—he prays. And God delivers. From tragic compromise to courageous faith, today’s episode calls us to trust God fully, obey His voice, and remain steadfast even when the odds seem impossible.
Hosts: Ben Taylor, Michael Pritchard
