Hezekiah was a king of Judah and the scriptures says he did what was right in the sight of the Lord. We can learn a lot from Hezekiah and in this Address you will hear about his reign and the things he did to cleanses the House of God.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

2 Chronicles 29:1-5Hezekiah began to reign being twenty-five years old; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Abijah, daughter of Zechariah.And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that David his father had done.He, in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the house of Jehovah, and repaired them.

And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and gathered them into the open place eastward;and he said to them, Hear me, ye Levites: hallow yourselves now, and hallow the house of Jehovah the God of your fathers, and carry forth the filthiness out of the sanctuary.”

2 Chronicles 29:23-2523 And they brought near the he-goats of the sin-offering before the king and the congregation; and they laid their hands upon them.24 And the priests slaughtered them, and they made purification for sin with their blood upon the altar, to make an atonement for all Israel; because for all Israel, said the king, is the burnt-offering and the sin-offering.25 And he set the Levites in the house of Jehovah with cymbals, with lutes, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, and of Gad the king’s seer, and of Nathan the prophet; for the commandment was of Jehovah through his prophets.”

2 Chronicles 30:1-5And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of Jehovah at Jerusalem, to hold the passover to Jehovah the God of Israel.

And the king took counsel, and his princes, and the whole congregation in Jerusalem, to hold the passover in the second month.For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not hallowed themselves in sufficient number, neither had the people been gathered together to Jerusalem.

And the thing pleased the king and the whole congregation.So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout Israel from Beer-sheba even to Dan, that they should come to hold the passover to Jehovah the God of Israel, at Jerusalem; because they had not held it for a long time as it was written.”

Acts 26:15-2315 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, *I* am Jesus whom *thou* persecutest:16 but rise up and stand on thy feet; for, for this purpose have I appeared to thee, to appoint thee to be a servant and a witness both of what thou hast seen, and of what I shall appear to thee in,17 taking thee out from among the people, and the nations, to whom *I* send thee,

18 to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and inheritance among them that are sanctified by faith in me.19 Whereupon, king Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision;20 but have, first to those both in Damascus and Jerusalem, and to all the region of Judaea, and to the nations, announced that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance.

21 On account of these things the Jews, having seized me in the temple, attempted to lay hands on and destroy me.22 Having therefore met with [the] help which is from God, I have stood firm unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying nothing else than those things which both the prophets and Moses have said should happen,23 [namely,] whether Christ should suffer; whether he first, through resurrection of [the] dead, should announce light both to the people and to the nations.”

Revelation 3:1111 I come quickly: hold fast what thou hast, that no one take thy crown.”
