The kings of Israel and Judah are going to unite their forces in battle. However, before the confrontation the king of Israel makes a statement to the king of Judah.
1 Kings 22:29-30
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead. And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself and go into battle; but you put on your robes.” So the king of Israel disguised himself and went into battle.
So, you say to yourself, there is no one that stupid, especially a king. Wrong! That is exactly what the king of Judah did.
Now you must read the chapter because the one who died that day was the king of Israel. It is a rather humorous account and teaches that God has His way in man’s affairs in spite of stupidity.
Please read the chapter.
Give it some thought.
