II. CHRONICLES 15:1-10

THE glowing bow of God’s grace is seen in the dark cloud of the people’s sin.

  1. A gracious message (2Chron. 15:1-2). The message promises that if the people will side with the Lord, the Lord will side with them (see Luke 9:50).
  2. A grievous case (2Chron. 15:3). It was sad to be without God, without law, and without instruction; but the unsaved are in a worse plight. They have
  3. A good find (2Chron. 15:4). To find the Lord is to find all good, as the prodigal found when he came home to his father. To find the Lord is to be found of the Lord (Luke 15:5-7, 8-10).
  4. A gloomy country (2Chron. 15:5-6). When men get wrong with God, they are sure to fall out with each other. Gloom is the daughter of godlessness.
  5. A grand promise (2Chron. 15:7). An honest heart is the one essential for the seed of God’s truth to bring forth fruit (Matt. 13:23), and diligence is the forerunner of blessing. Work and reward go together.
  6. A genuine revival (2Chron. 15:8). There are always two sides to a genuine revival, namely the negative side-the “putting away” (1 Peter 2:1, R.V.), and the positive side-renewing “the altar of the Lord” (2Chron. 15:8).
  7. A gathered host (2Chron. 15:9-10). When men get near to God, they get near to each other. The true basis of union is found in gathering around the True Centre-Christ (1 Cor. 12:12).
