II Chronicles

7: 14: The pathway of blessing: “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways: then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” It brings heaven within speaking-distance.

12: 14. “Prepared “— margin,” fixed.” There is no fixity of purpose in the sinner.

14: 11. Dependence upon God.
Confession of weakness.
Confidence in His help.
Request.

12. Request granted.

18: 11. Ahab had his preachers and prophets. No man is so corrupt, but he will find some one who preaches to suit him.

30. Do not try to overcome your failings and mistakes one by one; but deal at once with the cause of your failure.

20: 21, 22. Praise first, then victory.

35. Man never gains by doing wrong in order that good may come of it.
