1 Kings 22:1-30 - Getting God to Agree with Us (September 24, 2000)

Have we ever made a decision first and then looked for support for that decision from the Bible or gone to a spiritual counselor hoping to hear confirmation of that decision?  We see from the last major story of the life of Ahab, that this is a dangerous procedure to follow.  When we make up our minds to do something without being open to the word of God, we are setting ourselves up for deception and disaster.  All of us, at all times and about all decisions must be open to the word of God and to correction from the word of God.  Other passages: Job 1-2.
