Read: 1 Kings 20
In those days, different nations had different gods. When two nations went to war, it was thought the nation with the stronger god would win. The Arameans attack Israel and belittle God in the process. Even though God is displeased with Ahab, he can’t allow other nations to insult Him. Ahab was given the opportunity to avenge God’s name, but doesn’t follow it to completion.
Do we protect God’s name, or do we do nothing when others insult Him?
