In this episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures, we dive into 2 Chronicles Chapter 18, where King Jehoshaphat of Judah forms an uneasy alliance with King Ahab of Israel—a partnership that leads to deception, danger, and the tragic death of Ahab in battle.
The story centers on a powerful moment: hundreds of false prophets assure victory, but one man—the prophet Micaiah—speaks truth from God, even when it’s unpopular. Jehoshaphat, caught between allegiance and discernment, learns a hard lesson about the risks of aligning with ungodly counsel.
This episode explores how to discern truth in a world full of noise, why character matters in your closest relationships, and how courageous truth-telling is still a spiritual necessity today.
