ARE YOU SICK OR IN PAIN?
Jeremiah 17:12
But our refuge is your throne, eternal, high and glorious. O Lord, the Hope of Israel, all who turn away from you shall be disgraced and shamed; they are registered for earth and not for glory, for they have forsaken the Lord, the Fountain of living waters. Lord, you alone can heal me, you alone can save, and my praises are for you.
Isaiah 38:1-5
It was just before all this that Hezekiah became deathly sick and Isaiah the prophet (Amoz’ son) went to visit him and gave him this message from the Lord:
“Set your affairs in order, for you are going to die; you will not recover from this illness.”
When Hezekiah heard this, he turned his face to the wall and prayed: “O Lord, don’t you remember how true I’ve been to you and how I’ve always tried to obey you in everything you said?” then he broke down with great sobs.
So the Lord sent another message to Isaiah:
“Go and tell Hezekiah that the Lord God of your forefather David hears you praying and sees your tears and will let you live fifteen more years. He will deliver you and this city from the king of Assyria. I will defend you, says the Lord, and here is my guarantee: I will send the sun backwards ten degrees as measured on Ahaz’ sundial!”
(When Isaiah went to Hezekiah who was extremely ill and told him of his impending death, Hezekiah immediately turned to God. God responded to his prayer, allowing Hezekiah to live another 15 years. In response to fervent prayer, God may change the course of our lives too. Never hesitate to ask God for radical changes if you will honour him with those changes.)
