Speak Only What The Lord Says by Kirk Hunt
And Micaiah said, “As the Lord lives, whatever the Lord says to me, that I will speak.”
1 Kings 22:14 NKJV
Prophet Micaiah did not care what the four hundred other prophets said. Courageously, Micaiah spoke God’s truth about the coming battle. Micaiah had only One source, and he spoke to an audience of One.
Too often, even God’s people allow themselves to be swayed by the crowd. Or manipulated by an influential voice. Our lone authority should be Scripture. The only influencer who should sway us is God.
Ahab wanted to hear what he wanted to hear. Instead, a faithful man spoke God’s truth. Determined to have his own way, he jailed Micaiah and went to war anyway.
The 400 men who prophesied success were wrong. Israel lost the battle. King Ahab bled to death in his chariot. Their numbers meant nothing, as long as they spoke against God’s word.
God’s people hear truth from one voice: Jehovah-God. When we speak, we should only speak what God tells us to say. No matter how many are listening, we speak to an audience of One, Father-God.
It takes courage to resist the crowd. It takes fortitude to resist the pressure. It takes integrity to refuse the bribes. Stay strong saint of God. Do not give in to false truth or disobedient voices.
Refuse the pressure of the herd. Listen to God carefully through Scripture and prayer. Speak only what He tells you.
Think: Do I speak God’s truth, or something else?
Pray: “Lord, help me to speak only what You say.”
