Asa did what was good and right in the sight of Jehovah his God (2 Chron. 14:2).
Asa told the people that it was Jehovah who had given them “everywhere peace” (2 Chron. 14:6, 7). But he didn't think this was the time to take things easy. On the contrary, he began to build cities, walls, towers and gates. He told the inhabitants of Judah: "The country is still in our power." What he wanted to say? That they could move freely on the land that God had given them and build without the threat of any enemy. That is why he encouraged the people to take advantage of this period of peace. Asa also took advantage of this time of peace to strengthen his army (2 Chron. 14:8). Did he not trust Jehovah? Of course he trusted him, but he knew that as king he had a duty to prepare the people for the difficulties that might come in the future. He knew that this period of peace in Judah would not last forever, and it did. w20.09 15 paras. Four. Five.
What does 2 Timothy 4:2 encourage us to do?
If we live in a period of peace, how can we take advantage of it? (Read 2 Timothy 4:2). Let's analyze our circumstances. Let us think about whether we or a member of our family could do more in preaching or even pioneer. This is not the time to accumulate money and material things, which will ultimately be lost in the great tribulation (Prov. 11:4; Matt. 6:31-33; 1 John 2:15-17).
What have some publishers done to preach to as many people as possible?
Many publishers have learned another language to preach and teach others. To support them, Jehovah's organization produces Bible information in more and more languages. For example, in 2010 there were publications in about 500 languages. But now we have already exceeded 1,000.
How do people feel when they hear the Kingdom message in their native language? Give an example.
How do people feel when they hear about Jehovah in their native language? Let us consider the following experience. A sister attended an assembly in Memphis, Tennessee, United States, in her native language, Kinyarwanda, which is spoken primarily in Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Uganda. After the assembly, he said, “I have been in the United States for seventeen years, and this is the first time I have fully understood a spiritual program.” It is clear that hearing the information in his language had touched his heart. If our circumstances allow us, why don't we learn another language to help some people in the territory? Have we thought that they might respond better if we preach to them in their language? Without a doubt, the effort is worth it.
