Two chapters tonight in our midweek study through Second Chronicles, chapter by chapter and verse by verse,

Lord willing, we'll do chapters 15 and 16. You can turn there if you're not there already.

And very interesting study tonight, looking forward to what the Lord has for us.

Some very applicable truths, as is always the case. interesting study tonight looking forward to what the Lord has for us some very

applicable truths as is always the case with God's word and so why don't we pray

we'll ask God's blessing on our time together in his word if you would join with me

loving Heavenly Father we're needing for you at this time to just remove all the distractions

and the busyness of this week and even this day so that we can give you our undivided attention.

Lord, that's why we're here tonight. We're here because we desire for you to minister to

us and speak into our lives in and through your word.

So Lord, will you do that?

Will you speak?

And when you do, will you do so very clearly and very simply?

Because Lord, we have ears to hear and hearts to receive.

So Lord, thank you in advance for what you're going to do in our

time together in your word tonight we pray. In Jesus' name, amen.

Chapter 15, verse 1. Now the Spirit of God came upon Azariah, the son of Aded. And verse 2 2 he went out to meet Assa and said to him,

hear me Asa and all Judah and Benjamin, the Lord is with you while you are with him.

If you seek him, he will be found by you. But if you forsake him, he will forsake you. So right out of

the shoot, the chapter begins with what I believe is a very important biblical truth,

but the problem is that this particular truth can oftentimes be dismissed under the

banner of another very important biblical truth.
