Faith Under Siege

Isaiah 36:1-37:7

Sermon Notes:

1) The Doubt that the Enemy Sows, 36:1-20

2) The Faith that Dares to Trust, 36:21-37:4

3) The Savior that Won’t Let Go, 37:5-7

Reflection questions:

1. Compare Isaiah 36 to Isaiah 7. What do you see about Israel’s enemies, God’s message to the King, the King’s response?

2. Barry Webb says, “It is always Satan’s way to make us think that God has abandoned us.” How do you see this message in Isaiah 36, and how have you heard that message recently (from your conscience, from someone you know, from the news or entertainment world)?

3. Do we deserve worse than what God gives us, or does God give us better than we deserve? How does the way you frame that question affect your attitude? See Psalm 103:8-13.
