HEZIKIAH MEETS A CRISIS
. (II Chron. 32:1-8)
j After these things, and the es
tablishment thereof, Sennacherib,
d icing of Assyria, came and entered
fjinto Judah and encamped against
-the fenced cities and thought to
~ win them for himself. And when
,Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib was
-‘come, and that he was purposed to
tight against Jerusalem, he took
counsel with his princes and his
? mighty men to stop the waters of
the fountains which were without
"the city: and they did help him. So
'there was gathered much people
together, who stopped all the foun
tains, and the brook that ran
^through the land, saying, “Why
-should the king of Assyria come
>and find much water.”
v Also he strengthened himself
'and built up the wall that was
tbroken, and raised it up to the tow
ers and another wall without and
"made darts and shields in abund
ance. And he set captains of war
'over the people, and gathered
"them together to him in the street
of the gate of the city, and spake
"comfortably to them, saying, “Be
. strong and courageous, be not
■ afraid nor dismayed for the king
’of Assyria, nor for all the mul
titudes that are with him; for there
-be more with us than with him:
With him is an arm of flesh; but
-with us is the LORD our GOD to
- help us, and to fight our battles.”
"And the people rested themselves
-upon the words of Hezekiah, king
"of Judah.
Sennacherib’s aim was to raise a
"boundless monarchy for himself
"upon the ruins of all his neigh

bors. His predecessor, Shalman
eser, had lately made himself mas
ter of the kingdom of Israel, and
carried the 10 tribes captives.
Sennacherib thought, in like
manner, to win Judah for himself.
Pride and ambition put men upon
grasping at universal dominion.
Sennacherib invaded Judah im
mediately after the reformation of
>t and the re-establishment of re
ligion in it. “After these things he
entered into Judah,” (v. 1). After
such a religious awakening one
would expect nothing but perfect
peace, and that none would med
dle with a people thus qualified
for such divine favor; yet the next
news we hear is as a threatening
destroying army enters the coun
try, and is ready to lay all waste.
We may be in the way of our
duty and yet meet with trouble
and danger. (I have had it so.) God
orders it so for the trial of our
confidence in Him and the manifes
tation of His care concerning us,
but God has promised to be with
His children and to lead us along.
Hezikiah took counsel with his
princes as to what he should do,
what steps he should take. A pow
erful army must have plenty of
water, so all of the army of Hezi
kiah were called to arms. All
hands were set immediately to
work to stop up the fountains, and
the brook that ran through the
midst of the land.
Without the fountain the army
would soon perish, so it is when
Christian.- are separated from the
fountain (Christ Jesus), their spir
itual life soon dies. Weapons,
swords and darts, were made, the
walls repaired, captains were ap
pointed, and every man was in his
place. Their trust was in God, the
Great Commander, Who was able
to protect and defeat the enemy.
Hezikiah endeavored to keep
down their fears, “Be strong and
courageous, do not think of de
feat, but resolve to hold the city,
fight to the last man.” He endeav
ored to keep up their faith, in or
der to the silencing and towards
suppressing their fears. Sennache
rib had a great army, thousands
of men ready to fight, wanting to
fight, yet Hezikiah with his few
with God on his side amounted to
more than all of the armies of
Assyria.
Our enemy is the arm of flesh,
but with us is the Lord, whose
power is irrestible, our God, whose
promise is ours, a God in covenant
with us, to help us fight th®m.
This was faith in God. With this
kind of faith you can t u |
God be for us who can be against
us?” |
