2 Kings 18: Who are you gonna trust?

Rev. Lucas Witt, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Baltimore, MD, joins host Rev. Brady Finnern to study 2 Kings 18. The people of Judah had a new king who “trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel.”  That trust was tested when the Assyrian army attacked their cities and the Assyrian officials questioned the power and grace of God.  The officials made a compelling argument to submit to their authority, the people were silent.  Not silent due to fear, but a silent trust in Hezekiah and the LORD to protect them.  “Lord God, help us to trust in You.  We will be tempted by the perceived power of this world, but remind us of Your authority and power by the cross and empty tomb.  Lord have mercy.  Amen”
