“Then Hilkiah answered and said to Shaphan the secretary, ‘I have found the Book of the Law in the house of the LORD’. And Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan” 2 Chronicles 34:15 (ESV). An amazing OT story, when the Word of God got lost in the house of God. It was there all the time but was neglected and not publicly read in the congregation. Its admonitions were left unheard and unheeded. In finding the book, they found their roots, they found the secret of who they were as God’s people, they gained perspective, and they were able to make a new start in following their Lord based on what God wanted. Rediscover The Book!
“And Josiah took away all the abominations from all the territory that belonged to the people of Israel and made all who were present in Israel serve the LORD their God. All his days they did not turn away from following the LORD, the God of their fathers.” 2 Chronicles 34:33 (ESV)
