1 Kings 21:20-29
Ahab said to Elijah, "So you have found me, my enemy!"
"I have found you," he answered, "because you have sold yourself to do evil in the eyes of the Lord. 'I am going to bring disaster on you. I will consume your descendants and cut off from Ahab every last male in Israel.
And also concerning Jezebel the Lord says: 'Dogs will devour Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel."
There was never a man like Ahab, who sold himself to do evil in the eyes of the Lord, urged on by Jezebel his wife.
"Have you noticed how Ahab has humbled himself before me? Because he has humbled himself, I will not bring this disaster in his day, but I will bring it on his house in the days of his son."
Elijah speaks true and for once the king takes notices, winning a stay of judgment for his lifetime.
Why?
You have found me: You have found my heart!
The Lord has full of mercy to everyone, even like Ahab have sold himself to do evil, when Ahab humbled himself, God like not to bring disaster in his day, but delay to his son.
God is judgment and mercy to men.
Everyone confesses his sins and turn to the Lord, God will be forgiven him and give him a new way.
How?
Don't hesitate, come to the Lord Almighty, confess our sins and turn to the Lord, for God is love!
