1 Kings 20:10-21
Meanwhile a prophet came to Ahab king of Israel and announced, "This is what the Lord says:' Do you see this vase army? I will give it into your hand today, and then you will know that I am the Lord."
"But who will do this?" asked Ahan.
The prophet replied, "This is what the Lord says: 'The young officers of the provincial commanders will do it."
And who will start the battle? Ahab asked. The prophet answered, 'You will.'
The young officers of the provincial commanders arched out of the city with the army behind the and each one stuck down his opponent. At that, Arameans fled, with the Israelite in pursuit.
Why?
God asked Ahab start the battle, but Ahab afraid and did not attack first, and let the young official with 232 men with him, Ahab assembled 7000 troop followed him.
God gave victory to Ahab but he did not fully listen to the word of the Lord. He missed the chance to honor name of the Lord.
How?
Do not afraid of the security and safety of mine, and should be fully obey the word of the Lord.
Step into the unknown way, it may be the blessing from the Lord. Go forward and obey the word of God.
