Show Summary

Amaziah, king of Judah, began his reign with partial obedience but failed to remove the high places.
After defeating Edom, his pride led him into conflict with Israel, resulting in Judah’s defeat and humiliation.
Yet God’s sovereign mercy is revealed through Israel’s restoration under Jeroboam II, fulfilling Jonah’s prophecy.
This passage reminds us that pride undermines obedience, but God’s compassion endures, pointing us ultimately to Christ,
the perfectly obedient King.

Thanks for joining me today on Reading the Bible Daily with Dave.
2 Kings 14 warns us that pride can quickly undo what obedience has built,
yet it also reassures us of God’s compassion toward His people.
May we walk humbly before Him, giving Him all glory and trusting His mercy to sustain us.👉 For more devotionals and resources, visit
