1. Idol smashing and tithing (1-8)

After the Passover celebration, the Israelite pilgrims smashed idols and returned home. Hezekiah then sought to restore temple worship according to God's law. He assigned tasks to the Levites. He himself gave sacrificially, and he ordered the people to give to support God's servants. The response was overwhelming. The people gave with joyful and generous hearts. Giving is an important expression of faith.

2. Good stewards of God's blessings (9-20)

Hezekiah was a good steward. He provided storerooms to take care of what had been given, and he ordered that careful records be kept. He also appointed faithful men to be in charge of distribution. The instructions in the Bible were carefully followed. Hezekiah did what was good and right and faithful before the Lord. He sought God and worked wholeheartedly. (20,21)

Application: Lord, help me to seek you in all things, and help me to be a good businessman and faithful steward.
One Word: Seek and serve God wholeheartedly
