My Note: God brought the shadow ten degrees backward Ref. Scripture 2 Kings 20: 9-11
God caused the earth to turn back 10 degrees.
Scripture: 2 Kings
20:10 And Hezekiah answered, It is a
light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow
return backward ten degrees.
11 And Isaiah the prophet
cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow
ten degrees backward, by which it had gone
down in the dial of Ahaz.
2nd scripture 2 Kings 20:1 ¶In
those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son
of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine
house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.
2 Then he turned his face to the wall,
and prayed unto the LORD, saying,
3 I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now
how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have
done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.
4 And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was
gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him,
saying,
5 Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain
of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have
heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the
third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD.
6 And I will add unto thy days fifteen
years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king
of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant
David's sake.
7 And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs.
And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.
8 And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What
shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into
the house of the LORD the third day?
9 And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou
have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken:
shall
the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?
10 And Hezekiah answered,
It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let
the shadow return backward ten degrees.
11 And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he
brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down
in the dial of Ahaz.
God can do anything He chooses to do.
To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
