Day 187 – July 6, 2021
Scriptures: 2 Kings 19, Psalm 76, Nahum 1-3 Nahum Bible Project “God is renowned in Judah; in Israel his name is great.” (Psalm 76:1) 2 Kings 19, Psalm 76 and Nahum 1-3 are a convergence of several stories, that are difficult to keep straight. Today’s reading is not necessarily a timeline sort of connection. We are in the similar vicinity as far as timing is concerned, but it is not a one for one tale of the happenings of Judah and Nineveh and Assyria. What we have more clearly is a theme. God is renowned, and he uses the nations for his glory and honor. God will show his splendor and might. The King of Assyria, or in this case, the kings of Assyria are unaware of the glory of God. But they will soon find out, and the name of the Lord will be renowned throughout all the earth. God will, “break their yoke from your neck and tear your shackles away.” God will set Judah free. God is greater than Assyria and greater than the mighty kings. God, be glorified! Jordan
