Spencer reads Psalm 27:1–3, where David says the Lord is his light and his salvation, and connects it to what John says about Jesus in John 1:4–5. Then he goes to 2 Kings 18 and 19 to watch a king live it out. Hezekiah took Judah's throne at 25, tore out the high places, and smashed the bronze serpent Moses made once the people started burning incense to it. Then he refused to serve the king of Assyria. Sennacherib's messenger showed up at the wall and asked him the question the episode turns on: on what do you rest this trust of yours? He ran through a list of nations and gods Assyria had already erased, and every name on it was true. Hezekiah took the letter into the house of the Lord, spread it out, and asked God to save Judah so that all the kingdoms of the earth would know the Lord is God alone. That night 185,000 Assyrians died in their camp. Spencer closes with the 4 questions he's still working through: what reforms do I need to make, am I living in fear, have I grown complacent, and what am I confident in. Then a prayer for the Hausa, and an ask for the ministry heading into the end of the year.
Scriptures: Psalm 27:1–3, John 1:4–5
Pray for: neverthirst, that God would raise up laborers for the hardest places and supporters who give sacrificially so Christ would be known.
