Spiritual Inventory

"And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, yet not with a whole heart." - 2 Chronicles 25:2

Have you ever taken a "Spiritual Inventory?" Often times in life we get caught in the motions. We often times do things but don't even know why we do them. Have you ever taken a moment to think about your motives? You see, there is a difference between a right heart and a whole heart. God desires a whole heart. He wants all of us. He expects nothing less than wholehearted devotion. In 2 Chronicles 25 we find the story of King Amaziah who does what was right in the eyes of the LORD yet was halfhearted which led to steady degeneration rather than radical reversal.

A few chapters later you see King Hezekiah, a man serving the LORD with a whole heart. My prayer for you is that you will take time for a "spiritual inventory." Change begins when we are honest with ourselves so the question is, "will you be honest with yourself?" Allow God to give you a heart fully devoted to him.

"Thus Hezekiah did throughout all Judah, and he did what was good and right and faithful before the LORD his God. And every work that he undertook in the service of the house of God and in accordance with the law and the commandments, seeking his God, he did with all his heart, and prospered."
