These three kings of Judah pleased God as kings who were over the people of God - the Jews. Jehoshaphat the son of Asa reigned in the place of his father after Asa's death. Now the Lord was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the former ways of his father David; he did not seek the baals, but sought the God of his father, and walked in His Commandments. King Hezekiah trusted in the Lord God of Israel, so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor who were before him. For he held fast to the Lord; he did not depart from following Him, but kept His Commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses. King Josiah, the son of King Uzza reigned in the place of his father after his father's death. And he did what was right in the Sight of the Lord, and walked in all the ways of his father David; he did not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.

Orderliness refers to the fact of having a regular, proper, and systematic arrangement. It is the quality of being in a good order. Orderliness is being in an ordered manner. An orderly thing can be by virtue of being methodical and well organized. God likes and cherishes orderliness and doing things orderly. The Word of God says, "Let all things be done decently and in order" (1 Cor. 14:40). In manner, behaviour, and actions, orderliness has to do with obedience to the Word of God. Disobedience is disorderliness. When God sent King Saul on a mission to annihilate the Amalekites and their livestock, he obeyed; but his obedience was partial obedience, which God counted as disobedience. And his story is a pathetic story, because he might have done what he did with good intentions. But what is good in disobeying God's Word, Command, and Instructions? He was disorderly and disobedient before the Almighty. There should be orderliness in the church, in the family, in the society, etc.

God wants to answer our prayers, because He loves us and wants to bless us and meet us at the points of our needs. And He says, "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened" (Matt. 7:7-8). But are there some things which are required from us in order to have our prayers answered and our requests met? We will see the answer to this question in this book.

There are great things which we can learn from Apostle Paul's life and ministry. And he said, "Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ" (1 Cor. 11:1). This is to say that Christ Jesus is our Perfect Example. Therefore, if you are looking up to someone, and you failed, disobeyed, or backslid because the person failed, disobeyed, or backslid, then you have no excuse, because our Perfect Example, Whom the Word tells us to look unto, never failed nor disobeyed. Yet, Apostle Paul's conversion, zeal for God, passion for the Gospel, commitment to the ministry, suffering for Christ, despising of his life, and other things, will really challenge and encourage us.
