Back to the Bible
2 Kings 19 :35 And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
I want to introduce you to King Hezekiah. He destroyed all. idols and evil places, and also broke in pieces the bronze serpent Moses had made, because they had been burning incense to it.
You can see that King Hezekiah was a special person, and now I want to show you that what he did pleased God, because it says God was with him and prospered him in all that he did. (2Kings 18:7) He had some serious opposition, the King of Assyria started threatening him. it is interesting that the army leader he sent against Jerusalem, personally attacked King Hezekiah. And the God of King Hezekiah
As you read this story, perhaps like me, you will see the hand of Satan, because the enemy tells them not to trust in the God of king Hezekiah. God dealt with this enemy when an army of 185,000 men are all completely destroyed by the Angel of the Lord. This is more than the population of some cities.
Prayer: Thank you Heavenly Father for the example we have of King Hezekiah to teach us how we might please you, and better serve you, that your will be done your kingdom come. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
