So, what made Hezekiah such a great king? 1st off Hezekiah forsook the false gods of his father and turned to the 1 true God. 2 Kings 18:4 - He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made : for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan." We must do the same - destroy the false gods.
