The Assyrians want total surrender, and their threats distress the King. If he hoped that his payment would satisfy Sennacherib, he's must be highly disappointed. So as an act of humility, mourning, and supplication, Hezekiah puts on sackcloth and goes to the temple. His actions reveal his dependence on God. King Hezekiah knows that the Lord is aware of what is going on. He knows that he needs to hear a word from the Lord. So, he sends his officials to the prophet Isaiah. This is not a simple act of desperation like other kings. This is an act of personal conviction. Hezekiah is clinging to the belief that hope is alive because the Lord is in control!
Many of us have wondered what we should do next. Even though the enemy may speak to us in many ways, the Lord's voice is all we want to hear. We may be tempted to doubt His care and plan, but we will trust and wait to listen to His voice because we know Him and want to do His will.
