Good day dear friends.
Your prayers for a successful and wonderful Vacation Bible School (VBS) are in order. It begins today and we're excited about the kids that may show up for this important event!
Here is our study guide for today:
Monday: 2 Chronicles 29, 30, 31, 32Summarize Hezekiah’s spiritual pilgrimage in three or four outline words.
Hezekiah went from cleaning (literally) house in the Temple, to cleaning house in the hearts and spirits of the people. His actions brought about a revival of joy and thanksgiving before the Lord. King Hezekiah wanted to renew the covenant with God and more importantly wanted to renew each heart before the Lord, which he did. The celebrations that followed showed a renewed commitment to God that didn't seem to end soon. It also brought about a great spirit of giving. People tithed like never before and they didn't know what to do with the excess! God rewarded the nation with safety and blessings. Even when the Assyrian king came with insults against the nation, they held fast to God and God won the victory for them over this challenge.
Hezekiah is noted only for having a period of arrogance but even that went away when he repented of it and humbled himself before God.
Has your spiritual house be cleaned lately? I mean, have you asked God to cleanse your heart, mind, and spirit so that God is free to live and reign in your life? This would be the logical start as it was for Hezekiah, to ask for a complete spiritual renewal. Make room for God, allow God to move in and allow God to reign in your life.
The blessings will be tremendous!
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I confess that many have been the times I've filled my spiritual house with other junk, dust, and filth. Please help me to clean house and to make room for You. Come in and fill my heart, mind, and spirit with Your presence. May the light of Your joy and love light up my life and the lives of others around me. I ask this in the name of Jesus my Lord, amen.
Have a great and blessed day in the Lord!
