Cast Down Those Idols
Today’s Through the Bible Reading: 2 Kings 11:1–12:16; 2 Chronicles 23:1–24:16
Abbreviated / Highlights: 2 Kings 11-12:16
"Then Jehoiada made a covenant between himself, the people, and the king, that they should be the LORD's people. And all the people went to the temple of Baal, and tore it down. They broke in pieces its altars and images…” 2 Chronicles 23:16-17 NKJV
Devotion to God leads directly to the destruction of idols. Israel’s repentance and renewed love for the Lord ushered in a distinct disdain for idolatry. This pattern is just as true for you and me as it was for the ancient Jew.
