March 23, 2025, 2 Kings 18:9-12

In the fourth year of King Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it, 10 and at the end of three years he took it. In the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken. 11 The king of Assyria carried the Israelites away to Assyria and put them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, 12 because they did not obey the voice of the Lord their God but transgressed his covenant, even all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded. They neither listened nor obeyed.

Again we see lack of obedience has caused the Israelites to continue to suffer. God calls us to be obedient. They neither listened nor obeyed. Where are you and I in our obedience to God? I would like to think I don’t struggle at all but reality is, I know that I face struggles daily. How about you? What is your biggest struggle to be obedient?
