2 Chronicles 15:7 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 15:7

Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak
Be hearty, earnest, and vigorous, and not languid and remiss in reforming the worship of God, which Asa had begun:

for your work shall be rewarded;
with peace and prosperity at home, and success against enemies abroad, of which they had had a recent instance.

2 Chronicles 15:7 In-Context

5 And in those times there was no peace for the one going out and the one coming in, for great tumults [were] upon all the inhabitants of the lands.

6 Nation was crushed by nation, and city [was] against city, for God threw them into confusion by all [sorts of] trouble.

7 But as for you, be strong and let not your hands be weak, for there is reward for your labor."

8 And when Asa heard these words, the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage and removed the vile idols from all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, and from the cities that he had taken in the hill country of Ephraim, and he repaired the altar of Yahweh that was in front of the portico of Yahweh.

9 And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin and those sojourning with them, from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon, for many had deserted to him from Israel when they saw that Yahweh his God [was] with him.
