The Prayer of Hezekiah part 2

In our last study we looked that the background of this prayer, we discovered one of the largest armies was marching on Jerusalem, the messenger had all but insulted everyone within Judah, but most importantly dismissed Israel’s God and that nothing was going to stop the Assyrians from destroying Jerusalem and carrying everyone off as slaves.

We discovered that Isaiah was the prophet at the time and was consulted by Hezekiah and that he had told him that the Assyrians would not come to Jerusalem, that the Lord would deliver them by a rumor. As the Assyrian army went to deal with the threat that had come by rumor another threat is given to Hezekiah and this is the cause of the prayer we are studying tonight.
