He asked, "Will you go with me to attack Ramoth?"

Jehoshaphat replied, "I am ready when you are, and so is my army. We will join you." Then he added, "But first let’s consult the LORD."

So Ahab called in the prophets, about four hundred of them, and asked them, "Should I go and attack Ramoth, or not?"

"Attack it," they answered. "God will give you victory."

But Jehoshaphat asked, "Isn’t there another prophet through whom we can consult the LORD?"

Ahab answered, "There is one more, Micaiah son of Imlah. But I hate him because he never prophesies anything good for me; it’s always something bad."

"You shouldn’t say that!" Jehoshaphat replied.

2 Chronicles 18:3-7

Lies are phony friends. Our biggest fear can be – truth. What you may be running from may be what you are searching for – God. Have you made truth your friend or your foe?

Those who listen to lies

lose the ability to hear the truth.
