PURGE AND REPAIR
2 Chronicles 34

Josiah was eight years old when he became king in Jerusalem. For God to move, age was not a limitation. Yesterday and today it is still not a limitation. During the reign of Josiah, the whole land was brought back to serving and seeking God diligently when Josiah’s actions led to finding the book of the Law in the house of the LORD. Definitely, the book has never departed the house of the Lord, but the people have departed from the book. Many need to find the book today, and stop fiddling with the book. How long will it take you to locate yourself in the word of God? Are you willing to seek Him and allow His word to takeover your life? Before the book was founded, Josiah did some things, and that led to the founding of the Book of the Law, in the house of the Lord. 2 Chronicles 34:3, “For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, he began to seek the God of his father David; and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, the wooden images, the carved images, and the molded images.” In his seeking and purging, he broke, and burnt all that does not represent God.. In seeking Him, you will have to destroy all that you were doing before that does not represent Him, so that you will begin to have a clear vision of Him whom you are seeking. 2 Chronicles 34:8, “In the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land and the temple, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, to repair the house of the LORD his God.” After purging the land, he turned into to repair. Are you willing to find the word of God in your life? The word is near you and you have yet to find it because the vessel is not right. It needs: Purging and reparations. As a believer, you have been fiddling with the word of God long enough. It is time you begin to find the word, so it will present in you the power in His word. With all the purging and breaking down, the word was founded when Hilkiah announced, “…I have found the book of the of the Law in the house of the LORD…” (2Chronicles 34:15) As much as this applies to a whole land, it can also be personalized. Seek God, purge out all that does not represent God, position yourself for complete reparation and the Word will position itself in the center of your life.
