Special Event – Judah and Assyria: Mark Lanier, 09/03/23

Listen Later

Mark taught a standalone lesson on Judah and Assyria using a time travel theme all the way back to September 3, 701 BC. Mark, as tour guide shared:

  1. A tour of Nineveh: an expensive capital city built through Assyria’s war machine.Nineveh was a large city in its day covering over 3 square miles.
  2. A tour of Jerusalem: 50 times smaller than Nineveh. King Hezekiah refused to pay tribute and chose to trust God and reinforce the city.
  3. A conflict between King Sennacherib and King Hezekiah was inevitable. Despite the odds, God saves Jerusalem

    4. Points for home

    • In your crisis, trust God.
    • In your crisis, obey God.
    • In your crisis, watch God come through.

      • Listen to Mark teach the remarkable differences of how Judah and Assyria handled the great challenges of life, and how trusting God is still applicable today.
