Hezekiah's Testimony

 

 

 

 

 

       Someday I hope my testimony is as good as this one of one of the kings of Judah, the southern kingdom of Israel:

 

He trusted in Jehovah, the God of Israel, and after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor who were before him. For he clung to Jehovah. He did not depart from following Him, but kept His commandments, which Jehovah commanded Moses. 2Kn 18:5,6

 

 

 

 

 

 

     -He trusted Jehovah

Trust in Jehovah with all your heart, and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Pr. 3:5,6

 

     -He trusted Jehovah more than any other king in Judah

 

     -He clung to Jehovah
Therefore, choose life, so that both you and your seed may live, so that you may love Jehovah your God, and that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him. For He is your life and the length of your days, so that you may dwell in the land which Jehovah swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give it to them. Dt. 30:19,20

 

     -He did not depart from following Jehovah
You shall walk after Jehovah your God and fear Him, and keep His commandments, and obey His voice, and you shall serve Him and hold fast to Him. Dt. 13:4
If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there also My servant shall be. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him. Jh. 12:26

 

     -He kept Jehovah's commandments
By this we know that we love the children of God, whenever we love God and keep His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments, and His commandments are not burdensome. 1Jh. 5:2,3

And Jehovah was with him. He was blessed wherever he went. (v.7)
