2 Kings 20-21
The Timing of God.
Hezekiah was sick. He pleaded with God and God healed him and added another 15 years to his life.
2 Kings 20:6 and I will add fifteen years to your life.
2 Kings 21:1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Hephzibah. 2 And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to the despicable practices of the nations whom the Lord drove out before the people of Israel.
Manasseh was the son of Hezekiah when Hezekiah was addede another 15 years.
Why? If God has not added nother 15years, there will be no Manasseh.
We see what we see now, but God has plans. From Manasseh came King Josiah, the grand son of Manasseh. from Josiah line came Jesus.
Despite what man does, God still preserve his remnants.
I may not be able to see what II and where my family be heading now, its is god timing. We may choose to rush into action, but stay put in prayer.
Lord, I let me quickly settle down in NP so that I can adjust my time for II and my family. We need more prayers and we need to engage god more. I am speaking about myself.
Is Manasseh too young to be king, maybe. But how about Josiah? Josiah was eight.
This speak about the counsel we gave to our children. I pray and ask that I can share the wow from the word of God to my family. I also pray that I can speak about the real life greatness of God to them.
