II Kings 19:6 ” Isaiah said to them, ‘Tell your master this is what the Lord says: Do not be afraid of what you have heard – those words with which the underlings of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me.”

The king of Assyria had sent a group of thugs to intimidate king Hezekiah and the Jewish people…even taking it to the point of speaking in their native tongue of Hebrew in order to further threaten them. But when the prophet Isaiah was told about it, his answer wasn’t that of a fearful man dreading the worst, but rather the strong resolve of a person who knew God had everything under control. In other words, Whose report are you going to believe today? The enemy whispering threats, or the Lord speaking truth, love, and reassurance that He’s right there with you all the way? “Be strong and courageous. Don’t be terrified and don’t be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you where ever you go.” (Joshua 1:9)
