S – He remained faithful to the Lord and did not turn from following him but kept the commands the Lord had commanded Moses. 

⁷ The Lord was with him, and wherever he went he prospered

 2 Kings 18:6–7 CSB

O – Hezekiah remained faithful to the Lord.  He did not fall away at the end or turn to other gods during his reign. God rewarded that with his presence and prosperity.

A—This embodies our challenge. We love God today. Will we stay aligned with Him and His will? Will we do this for a lifetime and “finish strong?” God is ready to provide his presence, power, peace and blessing. The choice is ours.

R – Heavenly Father, you are the one true God.  There is no other God that is above you.  Give us strength and conviction to follow you today and each day.  We want to finish strong, knowing that we have honored you in our lifetime.
