“Now therefore, O LORD our God, I beseech thee, save thou us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the LORD God, even thou only.”
2 Kings 19:19 KJV
Hezekiah faced certain defeat at the hand of the Assyrian army which had come conquering right till Jerusalem and not been defeated yet. Right at the face of such insurmountable challenge, Hezekiah put his trust in YHWH, LORD God Almighty, “But now O God, our God, save us from raw Assyrian power; Make all the kingdoms on earth know that You are God, the One and Only God.” Hezekiah’s prayer was answered and the enemy retreated. This is the secret of our God, that confronted by impossible circumstances, our God comes through, for nothing is impossible with Him. At Hezekiah’s time, this was only for Israel, but now through Christ, God so loved the world, Jews and non-Jews alike, that He gave His Only begotten Son, and whoever believes in Him, shall not perish, but have everlasting life. For He said, “Behold, I Am Yahweh, God of all the world. Nothing is impossible with Me.” This is our God, when we face impossible challenges, we call upon Him and we are saved. Amen!
