Text: 2 Chronicles 31:1-21
When Hezekiah became King, he repaired the Temple, restored worship and the priesthood, and observed the Passover. As a result, a spiritual revival occurred in the Kingdom. The people went all over Judah destroying idols, and re-establishing tithing! At the end of the chapter we read about the motivation behind all of King Hezekiah’s good work – he was seeking God with all his heart, and this proved to be an example to his people.
What a fabulous example for all of us today. In the Kingdom of God, King Jesus served His Father with all His heart. By the power of God the Holy Spirit, we also can follow our King’s example by loving and serving the Lord our God with all our heart. If you know this is how you should be, but you are not this way, please ask your Heavenly Father for His grace to increase your desire and strength to love and serve Him with all your heart, soul, and mind.
Meditate on verses 20-21. How are you going to apply them to your life?
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, I desire to be in good fellowship with You. Help me serve You whole heartedly. Amen.
