Salt in Friendship and Loyalty
Read: 2 Chronicles 13
Key Verse: 2 Chronicles 13:5
Context & Explanation:
2 Chronicles 13 records the short reign of King Abijah of Judah. Facing a battle against the larger army of King Jeroboam of Israel, Abijah appeals not to military strength but to God's covenant promises. He reminds the people that the kingship belongs to David’s line by a “covenant of salt” (v. 5)—a lasting, binding agreement. Though Judah is outnumbered, they rely on God's faithfulness—and He grants them victory. This passage emphasizes that God's
promises endure, and our relationships should reflect that same loyalty and trustworthiness.
Inductive Questions:
Prayer: Father, help me to be loyal in my relationships and faithful in my commitments.
