Chapter 36
v. 4 "On what are you basing this confidence of yours?"
A question we should all ask ourselves always. These are my favorite confidence scriptures--for the Word is where I get mine from:
Heb 3:12-14, 10:35-36; 1 John 5:14
v.4-10 The Assyrian commander's first speech, pointing out the folly of relying on Egypt or God.
v.21 "But the people remained silent and said nothing in reply, because the king had commanded "Do not answer him."
This scene is so familar to me. There are always people around me saying the same thing. I used to try my best to defend but end up they still don't get it. Few years ago, I realized and accepted a fact that they are blind and deaf to God. I should feel for them . I should not argue with them. Now I will pray for them instead.
