God Responds to Prayer
Commentators unanimously highlight that God's message through Isaiah is a direct response to Hezekiah's prayer. As John Calvin notes, God acts when matters reach an extreme, showing His readiness to answer those who call on Him. The response is explicitly linked to the prayer ('Whereas thou hast prayed'), demonstrating that God hears and acts on behalf of those who rely on Him instead of their own strength.
