v.8 "When Asa heard these words and the prophecy of Azariah son of Oded the prophet , he took Courage. He Removed the detestable idols from the whole land of Judah and Benjamin and from the towns he had captured in the hills of Ephraim , He repaired the altar of the LORD that was in front of the portico of the LORD's temple."

This day , he reveal something to me , and I want to share it with you guys ,
The LORD is always present on the things that we are doing , he reminds us that not all we do is according to his will .
Will you have the Courage to speak?

Of course .. Fear encamps our mind, But we decide to follow and serve the LORD , and the day we decided is the day we are ready to speak for the LORD.
