1 Kings 15; 2 Chronicles 13-16

Common Theme:
God honors wholehearted devotion and trust in Him, even in times of conflict or uncertainty. When leaders rely on the Lord, He grants peace and victory, but when they turn to human solutions, even good beginnings can falter.

Questions:

• What does it look like to fully rely on the Lord in both personal and national crises?
• How does past faithfulness impact our future trust in God?

God Shot:
God reveals Himself as a defender of those who trust in Him wholeheartedly, as seen in His deliverance of Judah under King Asa and King Abijah. He loves to strengthen those who are fully committed to Him and actively seeks such hearts (2 Chronicles 16:9).
