Isaiah 39
Inspired thots
Though the chapter is short, its lesson points are significant. King Hezekiah grew proud of his riches; he showed his 'friends' all of his treasures when they came to visit. This may have stirred up the greed to covet Israel's riches.
1) Friends can turn Enemies and rob your possessions.
2) What we have belongs to God; we are just stewards. Hence, we should be humble and praise God for all we are enjoying.
3) Man is basically selfish; though judgment is coming, king Hezekiah was not concerned that his next generations would be impacted as long as he is not. He should be remorse and repent to the Lord but did not.
4) Learn to seek God in EVERYTHING for we can be easily deceived by Satan and the world.
