FAITH CAPSULE: Have you prepared to walk before God in the coming days? 

2 Chronicles 29:1-11

The grace and mercy of God brought you this far to improve your relationship with God.
To be alive day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year, to be alive is getting prepared to gain the presence of God.
Preparation provokes the appointed time of God.
Preparation from the depth of heart counts before God as the integrity to engage the presence of God. 
Preparation is the action for the manifestation of expectation.
For example, Jesus directed for preparation before Passover. 
Matthew 26:19 records, “So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them, and they prepared the Passover.” 
One prepares before God shall experience the manifestation of expectation.
Preparation can be the time of waiting and walking before God.
God waits to act for those who wait on Him. (Isaiah 64:4)
Without a doubt, live life by the word of God always.
To gain and retain the presence of God is to open and be cleaned up for God to occupy, and such will live life for the glory of God.
The action to open the temple by King Hezekiah depicts what it means for all to prepare for God to occupy.
2 Chronicles 29:1-3 records, “Hezekiah became king when he was twenty-five years old, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Abijah the daughter of Zechariah. And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done. In the first year of his reign, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the Lord and repaired them.” 
When Hezekiah became king, the first thing he did was open and repair the temple of God.
The opening and reparation of the temple of God counted for him as right doing, the character of preparation.
Hezekiah was right in the sight of the Lord.
An open and repaired house of God is prepared and well-kept for the occupation of the presence of God.
Are you an acclaimed believer?
Are you opened, repaired, and prepared for God to occupy you? 
Prayerfully, with desire, open up for the Lord to occupy your life.
Make it a priority to study and learn to make the coming days, weeks, and months to walk with God.
Are you open to the religious purpose or to reality with Christ?
Hezekiah did not open up to play religion; he brought the qualified to work inside the temple. 
2 Chronicles 29:5, “And he said to them: Hear me, Levites! Now sanctify yourselves, sanctify the house of the LORD God of your fathers, and carry out the rubbish from the holy place.” 
Are you open to the entrance of God into your life?
One who prepares should be open to walking with God.

Prayer for today: Ask God to impact you by having preparation before Him continually.
