Meet Josiah
2 Kings 22:1-2 and 3-7
Josiah Meet the Word
2 Kings 22: 8-10
The Book that is not a Book
Hebrews 4:12
2 Timothy 3:16-17
Romans 10:17
One cannot encounter God through the Word and remain unchanged. One will either believe/follow or deny/spurn.
Look how Josiah's encounter with the Word impacted him:
Repentance: 2 Kings 22:11-13
Reform/Revival: 2 Kings 23:1-3
He followed through with the covenant by:
2 Kings 23:4-6 Removing idols from the house of the Lord.
2 Kings 23:7-14 Tearing down and defiling "high places' throughout the city
2 Kings 23:15-20 going out to tear down the tradition of idolatry throughout the countryside
2 Kings 23:21-23 reinstitution the Passover
2 Kings 23:24-25 establish the words of the law
Application: Have you had a tear-your-robe moment lately?
DISCLAIMER: The goal of spending time in God's Word is not to get through it but to get it through you!
Josiah found the Word of God and discovered his need for repentance. God's Holy Spirit moves through the preaching and reading of His Word to do the same thing today!
