Isaiah 10:15 has been a verse that impacted my life. Though there is a great truth in it when it stands alone (don't challenge God) it is best understood when read in the context that it was written. God planned to use Assyria to punish Israel but the king of Assyria took credit for everything he had accomplished. In 2 Kings 18 and 19 we can read of that kings arrogance as he advances on Jerusalem. But God did not ordain Assyria to punish Judah. God's axe was boasting over the axman, but the axman cast the axe aside in humility. God is always in control.
It took me about 5 minutes to read this chapter.
