1 Kings 22:1-40
Message Take Aways:
1. King Ahab trusted in the deceptive words of false prophets rather than seeking the truth of God’s word—“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting” Romans 1:28
2. King Ahab rejected the declaration of God’s word delivered by Micaiah, who warned the king of his coming judgement—“They made their hearts like flint so that they could not hear the law and the words which the Lord of hosts had sent by His Spirit through the former prophets; therefore great wrath came from the Lord of hosts.” Zechariah 7:12
3. King Ahab suffered destruction because of his proud refusal to heed God’s warnings—“He who is often rebuked, and hardens his neck, Will suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.” Proverbs 29:1
