Lachish is regarded as the second most important city after Jerusalem in the Southern Kingdom of Judah and was strategically located on the Via Maris travel route. It was the last city conquered by the Assyrians before they set their sites on Jerusalem. However, God had other plans and supernaturally intervened and killed 185,000 Assyrian soldiers. See this amazing event in this video.

After God killed 185,000 Assyrian soldiers, King Sennacherib retreated to Ninevah, where he was killed by his own sons. King Hezekiah was a godly king who sought the Lord and saw God work mightily as a result. The prophet Isaiah played a key part in assisting Hezekiah through this amazing time. 2. After the Kingdom of Israel was divided, Lachish became a thriving Israelite city during king Rehoboam’s reign (920 BC), and around 10,000 people lived in the city at that time. 3. The King of Lachish joined 4 other kings to fight against the Gibeonites because they had made peace with Israel during the conquest of the Promised Land (Joshua 10:1–5). 4. Joshua prayed that the sun would stand still so the Israelites could defeat the 5 kings who had gathered to make war against the Gibeonites and the Israelites (Joshua 10:10–14). 5. Joshua and the Israelites conquer Lachish (Joshua 10:31–32). 6. King Rehoboam, Solomon’s son, fortified Lachish in about 920 BC after the kingdom of Israel was divided (2 Chronicles 11:5–12). 7. King Amaziah fled to Lachish after his defeat to the Northern Kingdom of Israel and was killed by his own countrymen in 767 BC (2 Chronicles 25:14–15). 8. God destroyed Lachish because of their continual rejection of God and sinful choices (Micah 1:13). 9. Lachish was attacked and destroyed by the Assyrians in 701 BC (2 Kings 18:13; 2 Chronicles 32:9–10). 10. God supernaturally protected Jerusalem from the Assyrian conquest (2 Kings 19:8–10; 2 Kings 19:20; 2 Kings 19:35–37). 11. Lachish was again destroyed by the Babylonians in around 587 BC (Jeremiah 34:6–7). 12. The destruction and deportations of the Israelites into Assyria and Babylon were because of their continual disobedience to God (Ezra 5:12, Ezra 9:7). Faith Lesson from Lachish 1. God gave the Israelites a great victory over the king of Lachish by causing the sun to stand still and by sending great hailstones. Joshua demonstrated great faith in asking God to cause the sun to stand still. Do we realize God is able to do great miracles in our lives if we have faith like Joshua? 2. God supernaturally protected Jerusalem because of King Hezekiah’s devotion and faith and defeated the Assyrians by ordering one angel to kill 185,000 soldiers. If our hearts are right before God, there is nothing we should fear. 3. However, around 115 years later, God allowed the Israelites to be conquered by the Babylonians because of their continual sinful choices. When we are not right with God, we find ourselves in the hand of a disciplining God who will deal with us according to His wisdom.
