Serving Others for the Lord

2 Chronicles 35

Inspired thots

King Josiah did well in sprucing up the house of the Lord and getting the priests and Levites to serve the Lord with a Passover celebration. Every priest and Levite were WILLING to serve one another and helped each other prepare for the big feast as there was much to do.

There is no pettiness in God's service to ensure that all goes well to the glory of God. All worked together in serving God to bring Him glory. The land had rest from war and the people enjoyed peace and prosperity.

However, too much of a good thing can cause the heart to 'stray' and sin. King Josiah did not mind his own business and went to war; in disguise using his own wisdom. But he was killed. He did not heed the word of God which may come from any quarter God chooses.
