The bible reading today is in 2 Chronicles 32,33.
“Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. Wow, if he reigned that long, surely God was all over him. He was the son of the godly king Hezekiah. He only knew his dad for 12 years, but he was discipled in the faith early on by his grandfather and prophet Zecheriah. And he reigned as king in Judah longer than any king in Israel’s history. As an outsider looking in, Manasseh had every advantage for a Godly life and kingship.
But so much for the seeming advantages and the blessings of God that surrounded Manasseh...Manasseh turned out to be the worst king in Israel’s history, except at the end of his life.
Let us listen to the text for today...“And Manasseh did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to the “abominations of the nations” whom the Lord drove out before the people of Israel.”
