Hezekiah is the underdog. Assyria is set on attacking the city of Judah. They have been ruthless with other cities they conquered, treating them like animals. They sent Hezekiah a letter mocking Yahweh: “do not let the God you depend on deceive you,” Inferring that they have defeated other countries and their gods did not save them.… Hezekiah rightly points out that those gods were “fashion by human hands.” …Hezekiah prayed that through God’s deliverance, all the kingdoms of the earth may know that Thou art the LORD God, even Thou only.”

If God is for us, who can be against us?
