#soap # Isaiah 37 ## Title: Justice Will Come ## Scripture: (Isaiah 37:38) “One day, as he was worshiping in the temple of his god Nisroch, his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer struck him down with the sword. They ran away to the land of Ararat; his son Esarhaddon replaced him as king.” (NET) ## Observation: The nation of Israel is reeling and terrified of this enemy. They need help. The Lord tells them something that sounds impossible. The terrible army in front of them will not only abandon their desire to capture Israel, but it will be destroyed. Even more, the untouchable king will die. At first, this must have seemed impossible if they thought God was asking THEM to somehow devise a plan to do all this. If you notice today’s chapter, God spoke about what was going to happen, but never said Israel was going to do any of the fighting. God has a way of taking care of things all on His own. And, He does it in a way that only He can get the glory. This keeps us from walking around in prideful arrogance. This would place us right into another problem. So, He can take care of Himself and us too when the time calls for it. ## Application: Trust the Lord and let Him do His thing. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for taking care of us.
