Rabshakeh, a high-ranking Assyrian military officer, stood and shouted, "Don't allow Hezekiah to fool you into trusting the Lord to deliver you out of the hand of the king of Assyria. Remember that Hezekiah is trying to misled you!" Then Rabshaken pried them into some clever psychological questions, comparing their one true God to all the gods of these lands that the king of Assyria have taken.
Judah's soldiers didn't reply. Soldiers of one true God remained unbended for they heeded Hezekiah's instruction, "Do not answer him." They stood unwavering around the walls of Jerusalem while a trio of messengers, the household overseer, the secretary and the recorder, came to Hezekiah with thier clothes tore to tell him of Rabshakeh's words. Then Hezekiah tore his clothes and sent for Isaiah.
If you were one of Judah's solders, would you defend yourself or remain silent? Why did Hezekiah command them to not answer a high-ranking military officer? The soliders boycotted their case. There is no judge in the courtroom.
After Hezekiah heard this, he called for Isaiah. Thus, he second-handed heard the Lord saying, "Behold, I will put a spirit in him, so that he shall hear a rumor and return to his own land, and I will make him fall by the sword in his own land." But the hassle continued. Hezekiah prayed the promised-prayer. Isaiah came to tell him that Promise Keeper beforehanded heard his prayer! Then the early sun met Hezekiah with one hundred and eighty-five thousand of dead bodies in the camp of Assyria!
Who will we need to withold our case from? The case belongs to the Utimately Promise Keeper.
