May 30, 2026, Isaiah 37:14-20
14 Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the
messengers, and read it; and Hezekiah went up to the house of the Lord, and spread it before the Lord. 15 And
Hezekiah prayed to the Lord: 16 “O Lord of hosts, God of
Israel, enthroned above the cherubim, you are the God, you alone, of all
the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth. 17 Incline
your ear, O Lord, and hear;
open your eyes, O Lord, and
see; and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to mock the
living God. 18 Truly, O Lord, the kings of Assyria have
laid waste all the nations and their lands, 19 and
have cast their gods into the fire. For they were no gods, but the work of
men's hands, wood and stone. Therefore they were destroyed. 20 So
now, O Lord our God,
save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you
alone are the Lord.”
I love how Hezekiah responds to the taunts and the
arrogance. He heads straight to God. Do
we cry out to God immediately under the same circumstances? Do we ask that God
would save us from such actions, so that all may know, based on your response,
that God alone is Lord?
