1 Kings 15:13-17

And even his mother Maacah, he also removed her from the position of queen mother, because she had made an abominable image as an Asherah; and Asa cut down her abominable image and burned it at the brook Kidron.

But the high places were not eliminated; nevertheless Asa’s heart was wholly devoted to the Lord all his days.

And he brought into the house of the Lord the holy gifts of his father and his own holy gifts: silver, gold, and valuable utensils.

Now there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.

Baasha king of Israel marched against Judah and fortified Ramah in order to prevent anyone from going out or coming in to Asa king of Judah.
