"A Tricky Stew of the False and the True" (Isaiah 36:1-10) - Daily Manna - 01/16/26

Devotional Companion with Discussion Questions: https://shalomaz.com/isaiah-devotionals

What do you do when the enemy’s voice is loud… and some of what he’s saying is actually true?

Isaiah 36 drops us into a real-life crisis: Assyria is at the gates, Judah’s alliances have collapsed, and fear is pressuring God’s people to submit. But the Rab-shakeh doesn’t come with pure lies—he comes with a tricky stew: truth mixed with deception, reality twisted just enough to break confidence in the word of the LORD.

In this teaching from Isaiah 36:1–10, you’ll see how the enemy weaponizes “reasonable” facts, quotes God’s words while leaving out God’s promises, and tries to turn pressure into compromise. And you’ll learn how to respond: take every thought captive, refuse fear-driven bargains, and put your trust fully in the Rock that doesn’t shake.

Key texts: Isa. 36:1–10; 2 Kgs. 18–19; Isa. 7; Isa. 10; Isa. 30–31; 2 Cor. 10:3–6; Prov. 3:5–6
