Uzziah begins his reign at the tender age of 16 years old. He starts out as a good and godly King of Judah. He has wonderful influences in his life. His father Amaziah, was a godly King and Zachariah, the PROPHET were strong influences in his life. Uzziah built up and strengthened the Nation of Judah. His armies were so strong that, other nations paid tribute to King Uzziah. He was know for his military strength. Uzziah was also know for his love for the LAND of Judah. Matter-of-fact, he loved the land so much that he planted crops and vineyards all though out the land of Judah and dug wells for all of his livestock. He was a very successful king. However, after Zachariah, the prophet died--Uzziah begins to "CHANGE." His FAME, SUCCESSES and FORTUNE goes right to his head. He becomes arrogant and full of PRIDE. HE makes a BIG mistake when he entered the temple and offer incense upon the altar. THIS was WRONG. The priest tried to stop him...but, his PRIDE got in the way....GOD punished him and he was cursed with leprosy. (Info found HERE.)

Letter of the Week Bible Discussion: Talk about Philippians 4:8- and what a virtue is.
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (KJV)
Finally, brothers and sisters, keep your thoughts on whatever is right or deserves praise: things that are true, honorable, fair, pure, acceptable, or commendable. (GW)
A virtue is something worthy of praise- something that is right.
