It was a time of political upheaval and savage warfare. Judah and Israel were in a state of constant enmity and people on both sides of the border were suffering. Into this tragic situation, Yahweh the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, intervened to ensure that His lamp would continue to shine in Jerusalem.
Good king Asa was raised up as the healer of his nation, the first great reformer who would turn the kingdom of Judah back to their God. As the prophet Azariah the son of Oded said to Asa and his victorious army after the defeat of the greatest invading army in Jewish history, "Yahweh is with you when you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you..."
But would Asa and his people continue to trust in Yahweh the God of their fathers? This book will hopefully shed some light on his life and his choices, leaving us with some powerful lessons to consider.
This full color book includes tables, maps and illustrations throughout and a comprehensive Scriptural Quotations index.
