Abijah, Rehoboam's son, is attacked by Jeroboam, king of Israel. Abijah prays and asks God to defend His name and covenant made with David. God miraculously defeats the army of Israel that had outnumbered Abijah's forces 2 - 1. Abijah is succeeded by his son, Asa.
Asa also follows the ways of the Lord. He removes the instruments of false worship and directs the people's worship towards God alone. He also is blessed with a decade-long reign of peace and tranquility.
