🌙 2 Chronicles 19

2 Chronicles 19 is a real chapter from the Old Testament. It starts, “Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.” That is not a motto invented for a poster. It is the first sentence a family hears when this page is opened at night.

Keep going a little further. The chapter also says, “and said to the judges, “Consider what you do, for you don’t judge for man, but for Yahweh; and he is with you in the judgment.” 2 Chronicles 19 opens with these words: “Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.” The line to keep is 2 Chronicles 19:3: “Nevertheless there are good things found in you, in that you have put away the Asheroth out of the land, and have set your heart to seek God.”” Carry the word “neverthele” from that verse into the rest of the day.

The line worth learning out loud is 2 Chronicles 19:3: “Nevertheless there are good things found in you, in that you have put away the Asheroth out of the land, and have set your heart to seek God.”” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.

What happens first in 2 Chronicles 19? Then try this: Read “Nevertheless there are good things found in you, in that you have put away the Asheroth out of the land, and…” once more. What does it show you about God? You do not have to finish every verse. You can close the book after the memory verse and still have read the Bible together.
