In 1 Kings 20:31-43, Ahab blundered after the Lord had given him victory over a powerful enemy. This happened because Ahab didn’t have a consistent walk with God and did not know what was expected of him. So he did as he wished and the Lord went to great lengths – including the death of a man and a serious injury to a prophet – to communicate the wrongdoing. May we learn to hear and obey God consistently.
