8.3-The eternal principles hidden under the crazy busy things in our lives.

8.3-
Secret, hidden verses

2 Chronicles 34.
34 Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem. ² He did right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the ways of his father David and did not turn aside to the right or to the left.

Eternal principle. 1

When you do right there is a focus on not being extreme to the right or the left.



⁹ They came to Hilkiah the high priest and delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites, the ^[a]doorkeepers, had collected ^[b]from Manasseh and Ephraim, and from all the remnant of Israel, and from all Judah and Benjamin and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. ¹⁰ Then they gave it into the hands of the workmen who had the oversight of the house of the Lord, and the workmen who were working in the house of the Lord ^[c]used it to restore and repair the house. ¹¹ They in turn gave it to the carpenters and to the builders to buy quarried stone and timber for couplings and to make beams for the houses which the kings of Judah had let go to ruin. ¹² The men did the work faithfully with foremen over them to supervise: Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites of the sons of Merari, Zechariah and Meshullam of the sons of the Kohathites, and the Levites, all who were skillful with musical instruments. ¹³ They were also over the burden bearers, and supervised all the workmen from job to job; and some of the Levites were scribes and officials and gatekeepers.

Hilkiah Discovers Lost Book of the Law

¹⁴ When they were bringing out the money which had been brought into the house of the Lord, Hilkiah the priest found the book of the law of the Lord given by Moses. ¹⁵ Hilkiah responded and said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord.” And Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan. ¹⁶ Then Shaphan brought the book to the king and ^[d]reported further word to the king, saying, “Everything that was ^[e]entrusted to your servants they are doing. ¹⁷ They have also emptied out the money which was found in the house of the Lord, and have delivered it into the hands of the supervisors and the workmen.” ¹⁸ Moreover, Shaphan the scribe told the king saying, “Hilkiah the priest gave me a book.” And Shaphan read from it in the presence of the king.

Money given for a certain purpose should be used for that purpose.

Eternal principle. 3
Find the word of God and make it a priority.  Don't lose it in the midst of all your other stuff and lose connection with it.

²⁶ But to the king of Judah who sent you to inquire of the Lord, thus you will say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord God of Israel regarding the words which you have heard, ²⁷ Because your heart was tender and you humbled yourself before God when you heard His words against this place and against its inhabitants, and because you humbled yourself before Me, tore your clothes and wept before Me, I truly have heard you,” declares the Lord. ²⁸ Behold, I will gather you to your fathers and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace, so your eyes will not see all the evil which I will bring on this place and on its inhabitants.”’” And they brought back word to the king.

Eternal principle. 4.
If you are humble and your heart is tender and you hear the words of God that come to you and you weep and are broken then God can give great power to bring about change in your life for the good. 

God humbles the exalted and exalts the humble.
