Scripture:

2 CHRONICLES 29:3-31:21

Is It Time For A Temple Renovation?

In the very first month of the first year of his reign, Hezekiah reopened the doors of the Temple of the LORD and repaired them.

2 Chronicles 29:3

My Takeaways

Something Old

In all that he did in the service of the Temple of God and in his efforts to follow God’s laws and commands, Hezekiah sought his God wholeheartedly. As a result, he was very successful.
2 Chronicles 31:21

“These words reveal his purpose, his method, and the result; and form a revelation of abiding value to all who are called upon to perform Divine service in any form. His purpose was ‘to seek his God’; and the expression is exactly equivalent to that with which we are familiar: ‘Seek ye first His kingdom.’ His method was that of complete devotion, ‘with all his heart.’ The result was that of prosperity, that is, of success in the very work which was attempted.” - G. Campbell Morgan

New Testament “wholeheartedly”

  • Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
    Matthew 6:33

Something New

Wow! This quote by F.B. Meyer poses some questions:

Are my doors of prayers closed, lamps unlit, and are the burnt-offering of my self-sacrifice neglected?

  • “This chapter contains a parable of the cleansing of the heart, meant to be a temple for God; but the doors of prayer are unopened, the lamps of testimony unlit, the burnt-offerings of self-sacrifice neglected.”

Am I unable to sing the Lord’s song?

  • “You tell me that you cannot sing the Lord’s song; then I know you have gone into the strange land of backsliding. You acknowledge that for some time now you have taken no delight in God or his service; then I am sure that the temple is badly in need of renovation.”

Am I out of accord with the will of God?

  • “The music of your life is still, because you are out of accord with the will of God; but when by surrender and consecration there is unison, your heart will be filled with songs without words, and love like an ocean in the fullness of her strength.”

What’s next?

  • Ask these questions.
  • Allow Holy Spirit to help me answer honestly.
  • Get to work.
  • Be patient and cooperative with the process.

Then these Levites got right to work:
2 Chronicles 29:12

Something to do

  • Ask these questions.
  • Allow Holy Spirit to help me answer honestly.
  • Get to work.
  • Be patient and cooperative with the process.
