because you tore your robes and wept in my presence, I also have heard you, declares the Lord. 20Therefore I will gather you to your ancestors, and you will be buried in peace. Your eyes will not see all the disaster I am going to bring on this place.’ ”

Neither before nor after Josiah was there a king like him who turned to the Lord as he did—with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his strength, in accordance with all the Law of Moses.

Lord God my Father,

Purge me from my evil nature and set me on your path. Turn my heart towards your face and draw me near. Help me to worship you with every breath and reflect your nature.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged because of the king of Assyria and the vast army with him, for there is a greater power with us than with him. 8With him is only the arm of flesh, but with us is the Lord our God to help us and to fight our battles.”

So the Lord saved Hezekiah and the people of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib king of Assyria and from the hand of all others. He took care of them on every side. 

But unlike his father Manasseh, he did not humble himself before the Lord; Amon increased his guilt.

Lord God my Father,

Give me strength and courage to boldly live this day for you and give me focus to complete task honoring you. Keep shame and doubt away and deliver me from my evil ways. Purify me and cause your desire to grow in strength within me.

In Jesus name I pray,

the hand of the Lord will be made known to his servants, but his fury will be shown to his foes.

From one New Moon to another and from one Sabbath to another, all mankind will come and bow down before me,” says the Lord. 24“And they will go out and look on the dead bodies of those who rebelled against me; the worms that eat them will not die, the fire that burns them will not be quenched, and they will be loathsome to all mankind.”

Lord God my Father,

I am your servant, remove my perspective from my service. Make me new in your image. You are my Lord, my God. Your way is perfect, help me to stay focused on you and not fall to temptation.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Freedom in praise

“Yes, captives will be taken from warriors, and plunder retrieved from the fierce; I will contend with those who contend with you, and your children I will save. 26I will make your oppressors eat their own flesh;

“Hear me, you who know what is right, you people who have taken my instruction to heart: Do not fear the reproach of mere mortals or be terrified by their insults.

Awake, awake, arm of the Lord, clothe yourself with strength!

Lord God my Father,

You are my redeemer, you are all I need, help me be still and know you. Help me to share you well and bring attention to your son. Waken your purpose with power and strength, protect me from my weakness.

His Day

They know nothing, they understand nothing; their eyes are plastered over so they cannot see, and their minds closed so they cannot understand.

I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.’

See, I have refined you, though not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.  11For my own sake, for my own sake, I do this.

“There is no peace,” says the Lord, “for the wicked.”

Lord God my Father,

Open my heart so I may understand your desire for me today. Make known to me your plan for me. Refine me from my sinful nature and give me your Peace.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Perfect path, one focus.

Who can fathom the Spirit of the Lord, or instruct the Lord as his counselor? 14Whom did the Lord consult to enlighten him, and who taught him the right way? Who was it that taught him knowledge, or showed him the path of understanding?

The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. 29He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.

“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. 2When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. 3For I am the Lord your God,

Lord God my Father,

Your power is infinite, help me to allow it in my life. Your way is delightful, help me to follow your path. Bring me strength when I wonder from your way so I may be returned to your way. With you all things are possible. Use me for your glory today.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

His Hope

But only the redeemed will walk there, 10and those the Lord has rescued will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.

Now, Lord our God, deliver us from his hand, so that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you, Lord, are the only God.

“I will defend this city and save it, for my sake and for the sake of David my servant!”

“Remember, Lord, how I have walked before you faithfully and with wholehearted devotion and have done what is good in your eyes.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.

 I have heard your prayer and seen your tears; I will add fifteen years to your life. 6And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city.

Lord God my Father,

Rescue me from my narrow way and deliver me to your way so I may thrive for you. Deliver me from my limited desires to your unlimited way and defend me from the darkness ever prowling. I with to be faithful to you in all situations this day and live in your hope.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
