Rev. Matthew Clark of Ascension Lutheran Church, St. Louis, MO joins host Rev. Brady Finnern to start our study of 2 Kings.
Ahaziah had a great fall. All the king’s horses and all the kings’ men couldn't put Ahaziah back together again. The LORD tells us that Ahaziah “provoked the LORD to anger in every way that his father had done.” Even after seeing the great works of the LORD and unable to do anything on his own after his fall, Ahaziah looked to false gods to give him direction. The consequence was death. The consequence of our sin is death, but in faith, we look to the resurrected Christ who has had the victory and life eternal. “O Holy Spirit, point us back to Christ. When we are in need, grant us humble hearts of faith that your consuming fire may not destroy us, but bring us back to You. Lord have mercy. Amen”
