Law and signs made to regulate social life in order to run properly. These signs are based on values ​​or principles of good and bad. Still, many violations occur. For example, the use of seat belts, which serves to hold the passenger in the seat when the car sudden stop or collision so as to reduce the risk of injury, trauma or thrown. Many have ignored it so fatal.

That's what happened Ahaz king of Judah. God said and stated the principle that the key to escape from catastrophe is to believe in Him. God even offered to ask for a sign. However, Ahaz refused and asked for help from Assyria. As a result fatal. God sent Assyria and Babylon to destroy the country. Like flies are disgusting and bring diseases such as bee sting and hurt, so Assyria for Judah. Assyria "shave" and embarrass them. Shaved head, beard, and thighs are great disgrace and a symbol of humiliation. Assyrian siege of Judah will create tremendous misery for its inhabitants. Vineyard extensive and expensive turned into grasslands and thorn bushes.

When God speaks to us through the Word that we contemplate, do not harden your heart and refuse. Let us learn to live the principles and values ​​of his word good. With it, our lives would be quieter. Disobedience risky, even fatal akibatnya.-ENO
