23.42 Hezekiah, the King After God's Own Heart (Part 2)

In part two of Craig and LaDonna's journey into the life and times of King Hezekiah, we continue to see how this amazing and godly king earned such great favor with God and the people he led.  He turned the heart of God's people back to the Lord and after destroying all the places and artifacts of his syncretistic father, King Ahaz, brought God's Chosen People back into not only the sacrificial system ordained by God for them, but while doing so, the musicians, singers, and worshippers sang at the top of their voices in celebration to the Lord.  All this is found in 2 Chronicles 29, and spills into chapters 30 - 32.  You can just feel the joy that came back to God's people when they worshipped the Lord in the right manner that God had instructed them to worship Him in.  So too, the Smiths surmise, would be the case today if the syncretizing church in Native North America would only rise up and  reject the teachings of those who choose to go beyond contextualization of the gospel into syncretistic practices.  It clear to the Smiths that when we do it God's way, it not only brings His blessing and favor on us, but is great cause for celebration as well.  Let's let the Word of God continue to show us how to get it right!
