Manasseh sought the Lord his God and sincerely humbled himself before the God of his ancestors - 3 Chronicles 33:12-13

Times of stress can motivate a man to do little self-examination

Manasseh made sinning into personal art form:

• Peresecting those who worshiped the true God
• Practiced:
  • Soothsaying
  • Sorcery
  • Idolatry his father abolished

God warned Manasseh that he would pay for his sins but he refused to listen

Assyrian forces invaded Judah and took him away to Babylon for 12 years of suffering

The once proud Manasseh humbled himself saying "The Lord alone is God!"
