Isaiah 34-36

"Do not listen to Hezekiah. this is what the king of Assyria says: Make peace with me and come out to me. Then every one of you will eat from his own vine and fig tree and drink water from his own cistern, until I come and take you to a land like your own - a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards."

This is what the commander of Assyria said to the Israelites before Assyria attacked Israel. They came and defiled the name of the Lord. They mocked God and told the Israelites not to believe in God's promise, power, and deliverance. Assyrians were obviously arrogant and believed that they are invincible.

I think we hear similar voices very often - sometimes from our own flesh or others because it is so easy to give up faith and buy into the lies of this world and the devil. We've been seeking God's wisdom and discernment about our careers and future. Let us not give up our faith but truly believe and act upon God's promise.
