2 Kings 25:22-30Gedaliah’s assassination leads the Babylonians to release Jehoiachin from prison, and he stays in Babylon for the rest of his life. He is a thin thread of hope that one day there will be a monarchy again in Jerusalem. The story of the kings comes to an end. What God has in store for his people now is another king, who will come centuries later. Even when the world gives us its worst, and we fail miserably, God still has options. There is a throne in heaven, and the one on it is never wringing his hands in despair.
LORD, when the worst happens, we will still trust you.
