🌾 2 Chronicles 2

2 Chronicles 2 is a real chapter from the Old Testament. It starts, “Now Solomon decided to build a house for Yahweh’s name, and a house for his kingdom.” 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, “Behold, I will give to your servants, the cutters who cut timber, twenty thousand cors of beaten wheat, twenty thousand baths of barley, twenty thousand baths of wine, and twenty thousand baths of oil.”” 2 Chronicles 2 opens with these words: “Now Solomon decided to build a house for Yahweh’s name, and a house for his kingdom.” The line to keep is 2 Chronicles 2:5: ““The house which I am building will be great; for our God is greater than all gods.” Carry the word “house” from that verse into the rest of the day.

The line worth learning out loud is 2 Chronicles 2:5: ““The house which I am building will be great; for our God is greater than all gods.” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.

What happens first in 2 Chronicles 2? Then try this: Read ““The house which I am building will be great; for our God is greater than all gods.” 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.
