Hezekiah, one of Judah’s most righteous kings, became very sick. The prophet Isaiah went to him to tell the king that he would not recover from this illness. The king was devastated by the news and wept, crying out to Yahweh in a passionate prayer. Yahweh heard his prayer and told Isaiah to return to the king for Yahweh adjusted His will, extending the kings life for fifteen years. Later, the king, in pride showed off too much wealth to Babylonia envoys who came to celebrated his miraculous recovery. Isaiah chastened the king for this and prophesied the consequence which was fulfilled a century later.
A Rally to Prayer
The armies of Assyria have again invaded Judah during the reign of King Hezekiah. Though in the past he capitulated to Assyria, this time he will not. Hearing the report that Assyria is determine to do to Judah what they did to the Northern Kingdom, Hezekiah goes to the house of God and sends men to ask Isaiah the prophet to pray. Isaiah was already seeking the Lord and had a ready answer. The invasion of Judah ended soon after when Yahweh sent His angel and destroyed 185,000 Assyrian troops in a single night.
