  Hi, I'm Pete Smith. I've always been struck by this
• 0:08
  phrase. In Second Chronicles 33, verse
• 0:10
  13, he prayed to him and God was moved by his entreaty and heard
• 0:15
  his plea. This is in reference to a king
• 0:18
  of Judah called Menasi. He was captured and imprisoned
• 0:21
  by the Assyrians. In verse 12 we're told he
• 0:23
  besought the Lord his God and humbled himself greatly before
• 0:27
  the God of his Father's. Here we see in a wonderful away
• 0:30
  the mercy of God as God's heart is touched by the pleading of
• 0:33
  this repentant king. In the same chapter, there's a
• 0:37
  double reference to his prayer in verses 18 and 19.
• 0:40
  His words are unrecorded, but it's noted that when Manassee
• 0:43
  sought God's salvation that he was hurt.
• 0:46
  Friend, I'm glad I can tell of a God who is very interested in
• 0:50
  individual souls and whose heart is touched by the repentant
• 0:54
  Sinner.
