Tag Kings Devotionals

The Books of 1 and 2 Kings tell the story of Israel from King David’s final days through the division of the kingdom and eventually to exile in Babylon. Though they appear as two books in our Bibles, they were originally one unified story continuing from the events in Samuel. Throughout Kings, prophets like Elijah and Elisha appear as God’s messengers, warning kings and calling the people back to faithfulness. Despite these warnings, most kings “do evil in the eyes of the LORD,” leading to the tragic fall of the northern kingdom to Assyria and later the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple when Judah is conquered by Babylon.

These devotionals from Kings explore timeless lessons about leadership, faithfulness, and the consequences of our choices. They remind us that even in times of national failure, God remains faithful to His promises and His ultimate plan of redemption.
