The prophet Isaiah sends word to Hezekiah that his prayers had been answered. Assyriah would not take Jerusalem. The angel of the LORD struck down 185,000 Assyrian soldiers. and Sennacherib went home. His own sons would put him to death while he was worshipping his god – Nisroch. Destruction is the fate of all who dare come against the LORD’s anointed.
LORD, teach us to pray, and not to give up.
2 Kings 19
