June 26, Day 177

Today's Reading

I like the contrast today.  Israel was running farther and father from God.  Each king seemed more evil that the one preceding him.  In the meantime, God was raising up kings in Judah who became examples through the ages.  Jehoshaphat was deeply committed to the ways of the Lord and made sure that teachers carried God's Word throughout the land.  "Then the fear of the Lord fell over all the surrounding kingdoms so that none of them wanted to declare war on Jehoshaphat." (2 Chronicles 17:10 NLT)
