“And thus did Hezekiah throughout all Judah, and wrought that which was good and right and truth before the LORD his God. And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.”
2 Chronicles 31:20-21 KJV
Hezekiah carried out this work and kept it up everywhere in Judah. He was the very best—good, right, and true before his God. Everything he took up, whether it had to do with worship in God’s Temple or the carrying out of God’s Law and Commandments, he did well in a spirit of prayerful worship. He was a great success. Hezekiah prospered because he chose to obey and follow God. God had told Moses, “Oh, that they would always have hearts like this, that they might fear me and obey all my commands! If they did, they and their descendants would prosper forever.” In the new covenant, for those who are born again, we are co-heirs with Christ in the Kingdom of God. Our purpose is to seek His Kingdom and His righteousness and all things will be added to us. Now we bless others with the God-given prosperity to extend the Kingdom of God. Let’s obey God and prosper so that we are blessed to be a blessing. Amen!
