Speak the Truth — Man as Defender

“But Micaiah said, ‘As the LORD lives, what my God says, that I will speak.’” —2 Chronicles 18:13 ESV

Bad information on a battlefield can get people killed. A commander doesn't need men around him who simply tell him what he wants to hear. He needs people who will give him an accurate assessment of the situation, even when the news isn't good. It takes courage to deliver an unwelcome report to a powerful commander, but telling him what he wants to hear instead of what he needs to know can have disastrous consequences.

King Ahab desperately needed a man willing to tell him the truth and only one man was courageous enough to do it. In 2 Chronicles 18, Ahab formed an alliance with Jehoshaphat, the God-fearing king of Judah, for a joint military operation against Ramoth-gilead. Four hundred prophets assured Ahab that the campaign would succeed, but Jehoshaphat sensed something was wrong and asked whether there was a genuine prophet of the LORD they could consult. Ahab reluctantly admitted, “There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD; but I hate him, for he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil” (v. 7). His name was Micaiah.

Before Micaiah entered the king's presence, the messenger bringing him delivered a not-so-subtle warning. All the other prophets were predicting victory, so he urged Micaiah, “Let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak favorably” (v. 12). In other words, Get with the program. Everybody else is saying the same thing. Don't be the one man who causes trouble.
