“The word of the Lord is good.” Hezekiah grappled with this statement on his deathbed. When the word doesn’t give the best outcome, do we still trust that it is good?

This is the culmination of everything so far. Jerusalem is under siege, and the situation, humanly speaking, is hopeless.

God will provide a highway in the wilderness, enabling the ransomed of the Lord to return to him.
