Sanctify the House of God

2 Chro. 29:3-5. " He in the first year of his reign, in the first month,opened the doors of the House of the Lord, and repaired them. And he brought in the Priests and the Levites, and gathered them together into the east street, and said unto them, 'Hear me, ye Levites, sanctify now yourselves, and sanctify the House of the Lord God of your fathers, and carry forth the filthiness out of the holy place." Hezekiah did that which was right in the sight of the Lord. He did not follow after his father's foot steps, but after the Lord's. He immediately repaired and opened the doors to the House of God, which his father had closed. He didn't waste any time. He knew within himself that the only way a person could receive freedom was through God. He had the Priests and Levites sanctify themselves and the House of God. Then he had them get rid of everything that was ungodly and did not belong in the House of God. Today we are cleansed by the Blood of Jesus from all our sins. Christ gives us the Holy Spirit to live in us, and we become a temple for the Spirit of God to dwell in. In order for this to happen we must Repent of our sins, and allow the Holy Spirit to get rid of the filthiness inside of us. We can get rid of the external, but only the Holy Spirit can get rid of the internal. Don't waste anymore time. Allow the Lord to help repair the House of God in you. Give God Praise today.
