And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he would prophesy no good concerning me, but evil?
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 18 is found in chapter 22 of 1 Kings. Micaiah explains a vision in which the Lord permits a lying spirit to influence Ahab’s prophets in order to lead him toward judgment. The king rejects the warning and orders Micaiah imprisoned. The passage is complex and uses the language of the heavenly council to explain how the judgment announced against Ahab will come through his own decisions. The king remains responsible because he has deliberately rejected the true word.
