July 4

Where do I start? Where do I end? Hezekiah is awesome! What a leader – what a reformer! What happens when 1 man takes a stand? Revolution! We have to be careful not to assign this to the kings of the earth alone. We have the ability and opportunity to cause a reformation to those we have been given influence to. What I mean is that Hezekiah could affect a whole nation because he was king. We have areas of influence and we can affect them just as powerfully, and then as Hezekiah did, invite others (Israel) to celebrate the Lord with you. (By the way, Israel was Judah’s enemy).

People were celebrating Passover who were not clean because they hadn’t purified themselves. Hezekiah prayed for them and they were healed. This is one of my tasks in life! There are so many who want more of God but they haven’t purified themselves – gotten rid of those old habits, those things that destroy them. It is my privilege to pray for them and ask God to forgive, purify and heal them. So pray Terry!
