Listen from:
V.1 The king gets a serious illness. But by the power of God he is restored. Sometimes the Lord has to speak to us through an illness to draw us closer to Him (See 1 Peter 1:6-7).
V.2-3 He prays, and God hears and cures him.
V.4-7 God promises him these years.
V.8-11 Love and power are combined in God. A great miracle is also performed. Hezekiah has a lot to be thankful for. We would surely think that a man who has experienced such great things from the Lord would never make a mistake, would walk carefully.
V.12-13 But look at what he does! The human heart cannot stand success unless it leans on the Lord. Hezekiah doesn’t say a word about the Lord having given him all his wealth.
V.14-21 One thing can be said for him, he took it humbly from the Lord.
