Today we’re reading 2 Chronicles chapters 21 through 23. These chapters recount the spiritual decline under King Jehoram, the brief and destructive reign of Ahaziah, and then a surprising act of courage that preserved the line of David through a child named Joash. In the middle of political violence and national instability, we witness a powerful truth: God always preserves His purposes—and He protects His people, even when they are powerless to protect themselves.
