“That night the angel of the Lord went out and put to death 185,000 men in the Assyrian camp. ”
2 kings 19: 35-36
this is my bible reading this morning. i have not gone violent or anything, no. but i must admit it did refreshed by otherwise dry spirit. let me elaborate. =)
it reminded me that the same God they had in Judah at the time of Hezekiah’s reign, is the same God i have now. and this God provides all the help his ppl needed, especially in times of peril.
if you are in need, you will be helped. if you are lacking you will be provided for.
Judah was in need at that time. king of Assyria had threatened them. they lack
manpower, and look who God provided for them– an ANGEL!!! (that killed a lot of the enemies) (angel of death??)
“…When the poeple go up the next morning there were all the dead bodies.
…so imagine the horror the Assyrian men had when they saw corpses around them! he he
“…So Sennacherib king of Assyria broke camp and withdrew. He returned to Nineveh and stayed there.” (verse 36)
….and Israel is safe ONCE MORE.
i am safe once more….
