2 Kings 7:17-20

The sad event in the death of this unbelieving lord, is very particularly related by the sacred historian, to show that no word of the Lord can fall to the ground. And it is a point of the most solemn consideration, that the very name Jehovah hath taken in the scriptures to show, that he is God in a covenant way, carries with it the most decided assurance that the Lord must be as faithful to all the denunciations of his wrath, as to all the gracious promises of his love. Reader! do not overlook, or forget this! Read these solemn scriptures upon this point, and may the Lord suitably impress them upon our minds. Mark 16:16; John 3:36.
