True Repentance in a Nation
TGIF Today God Is First, by Os Hillman

When the king heard the words of the Law, he tore his robes. - 2 Chronicles 34:19

Josiah was a godly king in Israel. However, before he came to power, the nation had fallen into all kinds of evil. One man, Manasseh, had brought the nation to a condition of inexorable evil. God finally had enough.

Therefore this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I am going to bring such disaster on Jerusalem and Judah that the ears of everyone who hears of it will tingle. I will stretch out over Jerusalem the measuring line used against Samaria and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab. I will wipe out Jerusalem as one wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down (2 Kings 21:12-13).

Josiah came into power just before this judgment. He began to clean up the evil by burning all the idolatrous temples, ridding prostitution and homosexuality from the streets, and destroying occult shrines. He did this without the benefit of even reading God’s Word, but through the Holy Spirit working in his heart. Then one day the ancient Scriptures were discovered in the temple that had lain dormant for years. They had a profound impact on King Josiah.

When the king heard the words of the Law, he tore his robes. He gave these orders to Hilkiah, Ahikam son of Shaphan, Abdon son of Micah, Shaphan the secretary and Asaiah the king’s attendant: “Go and inquire of the Lord for me and for the remnant in Israel and Judah about what is written in this book that has been found. Great is the Lord’s anger that is poured out on us because our fathers have not kept the word of the Lord; they have not acted in accordance with all that is written in this book” (2 Chronicles 34:19-21).

Josiah was broken. He tore his robes in repentance. He fell to his knees and repented for the wickedness of his nation. He stood in the gap, and God honored Josiah; however, it wasn’t enough. God still had to judge the nation for its previous wickedness under the reign of Manasseh.

“Because your heart was responsive and you humbled yourself before God when you heard what He spoke against this place and its people, and because you humbled yourself before Me and tore your robes and wept in My presence, I have heard you, declares the Lord. Now I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be buried in peace. Your eyes will not see all the disaster I am going to bring on this place and on those who live here.” … (2 Chronicles 34:27-28).

God spared Josiah during his reign, but after he died judgment came upon the nation.

No nation is immune from God’s judgment. Pray for your nation today. Pray that your nation will have a repentant heart among the leaders and the people.

Im 23yrs old, and do you think you do what your good at or expand yourself to mould you eg trying other things such as plumbing, stick it out and if you dont like it move on? I dont love plumbing but its a job, and where im from an apprentiship is worth its weight in gold. I love sport you see, its my passion, especially endurance running and adventure racing, ive already completed 4 or 5 marathons and now that im working full time my training is getting pushed aside but I dont want it too. Then again I keep thinking how am I going to pay rent and food? Any more suggestions?

katie asked:


Your invited at your bosses for dinner. You head to use the john, which blocks and ends up flooding his entire house.

Desperate to get some help before he finds out you switch on his computer to find SOS plumbing and end up causing a short circuit from the humidity which blows up his computer AND tv.

And finally when you go downstairs to apologise the shandelier in his living room drops onto his head from the pressure of the flooding upstairs.

SoulSearcher asked:


I live in a townhouse built in the 1940’s. My bathroom was remodeled three years ago (some of its plumbing included) and is located upstairs. The issue is that there is a clog in the line, seemingly between my bathroom sink and the bathtub drain line.

A few months ago, the sink was draining slowly. I removed the sink stopper and cleaned some gunk away, but slow draining persisted. I removed the “pee trap” (the U-shaped dip in the pipe just under the sink drain) and cleaned out a bunch of debris out from that. I thought that surely this would do it, but not so. I filled the sink with water hoping to push the clog through with the large water volume, to no (immediate) avail. I continued using the sink, thinking I’d call a plumber soon. Over the course of a day, the sink suddenly began draining normally. I thought the clog had gone for good, but no.

Recently, the sink started draining slowly again. I decided to fill it with water and use a plunger to loosen the clog. When I began plunging, I heard a release in the pipe and the water began draining normally. Yippee! Wait… a bunch of water and nasty black debris just backed up into my tub through the bathtub drain!

Now I have a sink that drains just fine, but a bathtub full of muck with a totally clogged drain. I tried plunging the bathtub drain, but nothing is budging. I really don’t want to call a plumber unless I absolutely HAVE to, so if anyone out there can tell me a do-it-yourself solution to this problem, I’d be so grateful! I hate it when they come out and spend five minutes fixing it by doing something totally simple that I could have done myself. Thanks!
I’m on sewer, not septic. My sink and bathtub both lack overflow holes, but the tub does have an internal plug operated by the up-down switch thing.

New advice?
