Family Worship Guide Memory Verse: Hebrews 12:2 Day 1: Read 2 Chronicles 25:1-4 Who was Amaziah's father and what happened to him? Why was it a sign of faith when Amaziah didn't execute the sons of the men who murdered his father? What do you think it means that Amaziah did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, but not with a whole heart? What application does this have for us? Day 2: Read 2 Chronicles 25:5-13 Why did the prophet tell Amaziah not to use the mercenaries from Israel? What was Amaziah's greatest concern when the prophet told him to send the mercenaries home? What does it mean to trust God with our finances? How do we leave our finances in his hands? Why aren't prosperity and suffering evidence of obedience or disobedience? Day 3: Read 2 Chronicles 25:14-29 Why did Amaziah become proud? What terribly foolish thing did Amaziah do? Why does pride blind us to correction, or at least cause us to respond poorly to it? How does pride blind us to reality?
