Brave to says the truth in these world

1 Kings 22:9-17
The messenger who had gone to summon Micaiah said to him. "Look, as one man the other prophets are predicting success for the king. Let your word agree with theirs, and speak favorably."
But Micaiah said," As surely as the Lord lives, I can tell him only what the Lord tells me."
Then Micaiah answered, "I saw all Israel scattered on the hills lie sheep without a shepherd, and the Lord said, "These people have no master. Let each one go home in peace."
It is Jehoshaphat's request which brings Micaiah to the king with his fateful prophecy (one lone(孤單) true voice against 400)
Why?
First time Ahab did not agree that Micaiah said the truth, because he said the ridicule words to king Ahab.
Micaiah said the truth before the kings, it is brave and he trust in the Lord, no matter what will happen to him. The Lord is his real king in his heart, he is the servant of the Lord.
The altitude of Micaiah said to the king is model to all of the Christian. We should said the truth, the word of the Lord.
How?
Brave to says the truth in these world. To honor the name of the Lord! God is with us when we says the truth.
