Jul 3, 2022The Forgotten Four Remember Their PeopleBy: Phil PeacockThe Forgotten Four Remember Their People An Act of Desperation (2 Kings 7:3-4) We live in a nation and a world full of desperate people. Sometimes we feel like those who are forgotten and unheard, as well. The Joyful Discovery (7:5-8) We are faced with a decision whether to be selfish or generous with the blessings we have received. The Right Decision (7:9-11) Jesus teaches us the right thing to do, but we must make the decision to be obedient. What kind of citizens will we be of our nation, the world, and the kingdom of God?
