Can a person reject God and still succeed? For a while, it may seem that way. But time always tells the truth.

In this powerful episode from 2 Kings 9–10, Stephen Davey walks through the fall of Jezebel, the destruction of Ahab’s dynasty, and the brutal but just judgment of God. What began with a stolen vineyard ends with a shattered kingdom—just as God said it would. Fourteen years after Elijah’s prophecy, the word of the Lord is fulfilled in every detail. Jehu rises as the unexpected instrument of God’s judgment, proving that no one escapes divine justice—not even royalty.

Stephen also unpacks timeless truths from these chapters: God may delay judgment, but He never forgets His promises. Sin can be forgiven, but it often leaves lifelong consequences. And when God’s word is rejected, chaos follows.

This episode isn’t just about judgment—it’s about hope. For those who obey God, the results are unmistakable. His plans bring life, meaning, and blessing. Whether you’re standing firm in faith or wavering in secret sin, this message will help you take God’s word seriously and trust that His timing is perfect.
