He had transformed the beautiful Temple into a pagan shrine, and had even sacrificed his infant son in the fire pit of Milcom. All to prove to the Assyrian king that he gave no allegiance to Yaweh.Then he anointed the young Hezekiah to rule Judah in his stead. O Lord, Hezekiah prayed, make me the best king Judah has ever had. Hezekiah made mistakes. He had tragic failures, yet his life shows the heights and depths we all faceand how God can lead us through both.
