I was preparing for a prayer meeting, and before we began, a young lady approached me and said: “I feel like the Lord is telling you to pray about going to the frontier.” Though I did not know what the frontier was (or what it represented), I received it as the word of the Lord and began praying for the next 10 months. It was on May 13th, 2019 that God gave me a partial answer to my prayers, in a dream: I was walking in a large air force hanger with Mike Bickle, and there were various kinds of aircrafts (jets, helicopters, etc) which represented a multitude of ministries. As we walked throughout the hanger, he was explaining the functions of the various aircrafts (ministries). After what seemed like a short tour, we ended with a peculiar aircraft. It was not a fighter jet, nor was it a helicopter, it was a spaceship. As I was standing before the ship, I knew it was meant for deep space, the frontier. Mike Bickle stood beside the ship, looking at me with a warm smile, as if I was the pilot chosen to fly it. After gazing upon the aircraft for a moment, Corey Russell (one of Mike’s spiritual sons) pointed at the spaceship and declared with a loud voice, “THIS SHIP HAS JUST BEEN RENAMED ‘HEZEKIAH AND HEPHZIBAH!’” When I woke from the dream, I was fairly confused. I had never heard or read about Hezekiah. So, I rolled out of bed, grabbed my Bible, looked up the H’s in the concordance, and to my surprise, Hezekiah was there! But the greatest surprise was that Hezekiah and Hephzibah were married! This is why the ship had been renamed “Hezekiah and Hephzibah.” Since that morning, everything that has unfolded is contained in these notes… Page !4 Overview Hezekiah & Hephzibah: General Information - Main Scriptures for Study: 2 Kings 18-20; 2 Chronicles 29-32; Isaiah 36-39 - Hezekiah’s Parents: • Father: Ahaz, son of Jotham, a wicked king (2 Kings 15:32-34, 16:20) • Mother: Abi (Abijah), daughter of Zechariah (2 Chron 29:1-2) - Age at Beginning of Reign: 25 years old (2 Kings 18:2) - Age at End of Reign: 54 years old - Total years of Reign: 29 years as King of Judah (2 Kings 18:2) • 716 BC-687 BC1 - Location of Reign: Judah, Southern Kingdom (City: Jerusalem) - Marital Status: Married to Hephzibah - Meaning of Name(s): • Hezekiah: YAHWEH Strengthens [Me] • Hephzibah: My Delight Is In Her - Prophets During Reign: Isaiah & Micah - Child/Children: Manasseh (2 Kings 21:1) Seven Points of Emphasis in Hezekiah’s Life & Reign: I. Removing Idols A. Before the nation of Israel could be restored, the idols of the day had to be removed. Yet, before Hezekiah removed false gods from his kingdom, he first removed the idols from his own heart. The removing of his personal idols lead to the local, regional, and national removal of idols (2 Chron 29:10, 30:13-14, 31:1; 2 Kings 18:4). II. The Priestly Ministry A. [Restoring the Priests] In the first months of his reign, Hezekiah was focused on restoring the house of the Lord. This endeavor required the help of the priests, who, at this time, were walking in many years of spiritual compromise. Oppose to scolding the priests for their complacency, Hezekiah reminds them of their identity (2 Chron 29:3-11). 1 The Essence of the Old Testament For PDF Version: [email protected] Page !5 B. [Cleanse the Temple] After the priests were restored, they entered the house of the Lord, cleansed it, and consecrated every detail/room (2 Chronicles 29:3-19). C. [Restoring Worship] Once the temple was cleansed, Hezekiah and the priests restored 24/7 worship and prayer to Jerusalem. He is the first king since the time of David/ Solomon to restore extravagant worship back to the Lord (2 Chronicles 29:25-30). D. [Priests After Revival] The restoration of the priestly ministry, the Temple, and 24/7 worship happened within Hezekiah’s first two months as king. After this mighty revival, the priests did not fall back into spiritual complacency. Instead, they were: (1) Appointed regular positions, (2) Gave themselves to the Law of the Lord, and (3) Stayed faithful in keeping themselves holy (2 Chronicles 30). III. Extravagant Offering(s) A. Hezekiah invited the people to bring offerings to the Lord. The amount given was so abundant that the priests needed the help to sacrifice all of the offerings (2 Chronicles 29:31-36, 31:2-10). B. Hezekiah not only called the people to extravagant offering(s), but he also gave extravagantly from his own possessions (2 Chron 30:24). IV. Family A. Hezekiah was not content with worship only being restored to Judah. So he called the rest of the nation (the 12 tribes) to come and worship the Lord. He unified a divided nation and brought the family of Israel back together (2 Chronicles 30). V. Humility, Weakness, & The Devoted Heart A. Despite the generations of wicked kings who neglected the statutes of God, Hezekiah was steadfast and faithful to them. He trusted God and clung to Him. He kept the commands of Moses and did not depart from them. He sought the Lord, and did so with all of his heart (2 Kings 18:5-6; 2 Chronicles 31:20-21). VI. Unwavering Faith & The Prophetic A. Sennacherib, an Assyrian king, came to invade Judah with a mighty army. Hezekiah’s first reaction was to fortify Jerusalem. In the midst of the siege, Hezekiah shrinks back (yet still trusting in the Lord) and sends messengers to Isaiah the prophet, who gives the assurance of Jerusalem’s safety (2 Kings 19:1-7, 33). VII. Prevailing Prayer A. Hezekiah was one of the great intercessors of the Bible, in which all of his recorded prayers were heard and answered (2 Kings 19:14-19, 20:1-11; 2 Chron 31:21). Hezekiah was a man who had access to the powers of heaven because he zealously followed the commands of the Lord (Zech 3:6-7). For PDF Version: [email protected] Page !6 Paradigm Shift: Hezekiah was the greatest king since David (2 Kings 18:5), but more than his political power, he was an extraordinary man of God. His actions revived a dead nation, reunited a broken family, and gave Israel a hope and a future. There are many things that the believer can draw from his life, but if we are not attentive, we will miss a profound revelation. An aspect that may be often overlooked about Hezekiah’s life is his marriage. His wife’s name is Hephzibah, meaning My Delight Is In Her. This part of his life is critical to realize, because all that he did, he did married to Hephzibah; all of his deeds were united with God’s delight. The marriage between Hezekiah and Hephzibah is the center of these study notes. This union was created as a pattern for the Body of Christ to walk in, that our deeds may be married to the delight of the Lord. If the Body is also to function as the Bride, this dynamic between deeds and delight must become a reality. For two millennia the Church has had many questionable motivations for Her actions: power, popularity, selfish desires, etc. But before this age ends, the Body will be identified primarily as the Bride, in which Her deeds will be strengthened by the delight of Her Bridegroom (Rev 19:7-8, Isa 62:4-5). It is also critical to understand that the delight of the Lord is not separate from His love. Just as love can be sacrificial and jealous, so also love can be delightful. Worldly delight is defined by the senses and the search for fulfillment; Biblical delight is defined as the pleasure of love and being loved. Jesus, our Bridegroom enjoys loving us and being loved by us. It is this revelation that will strengthen the Church to operate in Her full identity as the Bride.

  • Isaiah 62:1-5 Every So Often We Hear the Rumors That Jesus Was Married
    Sermon Lesson: Isaiah 62:1-5 Every so often we hear the rumors that Jesus was married. A number of years ago, there was a bestselling book and a hit movie in which Jesus was secretly married to Mary Magdalene. Supposedly, they had a child, whose bloodline still exists today and the church has covered it up for centuries. It’s just not true. The Bible gives no indication that Jesus was married, but plenty of evidence to the contrary. It’s not that Jesus took a vow of celibacy thinking that it’s more pleasing to God to remain single than to get married. From Bethlehem, he had the world’s salvation in mind and wouldn’t be distracted from that goal. But that doesn’t mean Jesus looked down on marriage, either. He took time out of his busy schedule to attend the wedding at Cana and blessed it with his first miracle. Throughout Scripture he pictures his relationship with his people as that of a husband and wife. Today, through Isaiah, the Lord tells us that he Takes Pride in his Bride. She is the crown of his splendor and is called by a new name. Isaiah gives us the maiden name of Christ’s bride: “Zion and Jerusalem.” Jerusalem, of course, was the capital city of Israel and the home of God’s temple. Zion was one of the hills on which Jerusalem was built. With unbridled enthusiasm the Lord declares that he “will not keep silent” about the righteousness and purity of his people. His beautiful bride shines like a gorgeous sunrise or like a blazing torch cutting through the darkness of night.

    Step into Isaiah the 37th chapter!

Therefore lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.' " 5 So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah. 6 And Isaiah said to them, "Thus shall you say to your master, 'Thus says the LORD: "Do not be afraid of the words which you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me. 7 Surely I will send a spirit upon him, and he shall hear a rumor and return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land."

  • Lessons from Josiah's Revival
    LESSONS FROM JOSIAH’S REVIVAL 2 Chronicles 34–35 1. Revival begins with seeking the LORD (2 Chron 34:3). Revival began in Israel when a young king began to seek the LORD: “in the eighth year of his reign while he was still a youth, he began to seek the God of his father David” (2 Chron 34:3a). Revival is the fulfillment of the promises “If you seek Him, He will let you find Him” (1 Chron 28:9; 2 Chron 15:2) and ‘you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart” (Jer 29:13). 2. Revival can begin with a teenager (2 Chron 34:3). Since Josiah “was eight years old when he became king” (34:1a) and he started seeking God “in the eighth year of his reign” (34:3a), this national revival in Israel began when king Josiah was only sixteen years old. He initiated the most sweeping reform in ancient Israel. 3. Revival removes all competing religious paraphernalia (2 Chron 34:3–7).
