At this point in history, the northern kingdom of Israel had been destroyed by Assyria. They had been taken captive and removed to other places. Judah in the south survived Assyria’s attack because of the miraculous intervention of God to save them through King Hezekiah.

After Hezekiah died Manasseh ruled as king of Judah and he was without question the worst king that Judah had in their entire history. Not only did he rebuild the altars for Baal and Astoreth as Ahab king of Israel had done, he built altars to foreign gods even in the house of the Lord! Can you imagine? In the very temple of the living God, Manasseh built altars to the gods of permissiveness.

He practiced witchcraft and used divination and dealt with mediums and spiritists and even made his son pass through the fire of Molech. God responded through the prophets and said that Jerusalem would be destroyed and even said, "I will wipe Jerusalem as one wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down."

After Manasseh, his son Amon reigned as king in Jerusalem and he was also an evil king. However, he only reigned two years because his own servants conspired against him and killed him.

That brings us to Josiah. He was only eight years old when he became king, but he did right in the sight of the Lord and walked in the ways of his father David. But Josiah not only walked before the Lord himself, he decided to bring great spiritual reform to the kingdom of Judah.

And with that our lesson begins. The reforms that Josiah brought to Judah challenge us to bring reform in our lives as well. But there is a difference between reform and revival.

Reform is changing the way a person lives, but revival is something different, something beyond reform, something greater, and something that God desires to see in each one of us as well. Revival is when a person turns to the Lord with all their heart.
