1 Kings 22 is a really great chapter to read in these times, especially when it applies to our culture of today. This chapter takes place when King Ahab was alive and this king was the worst of the worst in the history of Israel. He offered up idols and led the Israelis astray.
Well, we find out in this chapter that there was a prophet who this king hated because everything this prophet told about him was bad. The prophet, Micaiah was being used for God's purpose to bring warning concerning the evil that Ahab was endorsing.
Instead of listening to Micaiah, King Ahab got himself others to prophesy to him what he wanted to hear. As you would've guessed, they gave him the message he wanted to hear...go out and attack and you will be victorious. There were several who told the king that message. Problem was, there was a lying spirit was placed in their mouths (vs 23). Zedekiah which was one of these false prophets even struck Micaiah on the face. Ahab ordered Micaiah to be imprisoned because of his prophesy. Well, King Ahab chose to ignore Micaiah and went into battle and died.
OK, I've summed up a little of what that chapter said. The point I'm trying to make here is that Christians who are brave and preach God's word by action are going through the same situation as Micaiah. I can use example after example to prove my point. They're being attacked for daring to proclaim the truth of God's Word. The worst attacks seem to be from fellow Christians who don't share the same passion and courage to attack the problem. We're seeing many false teachers and prophets today like never before. We're telling the Micaiahs of todays world to take a hike.
Our world desperately needs answers much like Israel did back when Ahab ruled the land. We must get rid of our idols that would distract us from having a greater commune with God and would keep us apart from each other. Satan's greatest desire is an isolated Christian who does not provide salt to this world. Worse, Satan's greater desire is to see a misguided Christian criticizing other Christian's ministries (I've both heard and read about that happening). So, we all must approach God in prayer and through His Word and ask for guidance, understanding, and wisdom. God bless you and have a great day!

Satan's biggest weapon is to get humans to think he doesn't exist. and making "Christians" think they are hearing from God is his second biggest weapon.
1 John 4:1 (KJV)
4 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
May you also be blessed and enjoy your day.
Great post!
The time is now for prayer warriors to pray for the Micronesia Islands. The poor souls are being led to hell and do not even know it because of half truths of Jesus. This one organization calls themselves the Church of Jesus Christ the latter day saints. This is what trips people. The commercials are so good as well. They are hitting on what everyone wants Love and Family.
It is so hard for me to see, people to accept these half truths, which is false teaching. I firmly believe these two organizations are doing so well is because they are very EDUCATED, have made their own bibles from our BIBLE, and have very informational pamphlets with questions that people really want to know about. But most of all these things is the PEOPLE go out and KNOCK on doors and give their literature away.
People who are lost do not know that their Bibles are not the true "INSPIRED" WORD OF GOD.
So yes, I truly agree. We need more men like Micaiah in the lands today. We need to be very support of them!
This is a great message! It is very timely as well!
We are in need of the Micronesia islands for Micaiah's to rise up.
Jehovah Witness and Mormons have been working in the fields of the Micronesia Islands for 30 years. They are seeing the fruit of their work.
I really want to finish this top part of this message that took me a long time to write the whole message, but I have an appointment I need to go to. This is going to have to wait.
PLEASE disregard my message because it is not the whole message. I will not reply to this to my reply to this post because you will be responding to only half of the message.
I am no way trying to be impolite in my message, I am trying to share what is going on in the islands to we have more prayer warriors for this area. Because this area of the world is really being lead astray by false teachers.
Thank you for understanding.
Thank you I really appreciate it. I do not want anyone to get the wrong idea of what I was expressing for prayer for Micronesia islands.
Hope
We do need to pray for more Micaiah to rise up! The False teachers are taking the lost souls by leaps and bounds.
Please pray the Micronesia Islands to have bold Micaiah's to rise up.
Thank you for sharing this! I had much more on this topic but my days have gotten busier and busier as the week goes by that I do not have the time to type all my thoughts.
