1Ki 22:7 | MHM | STEP | v. 7 : Jehoshaphat was not satisfied with these prophets. Their words did not sound like true messages from God, and Jehoshaphat wanted to hear from a real prophet of the Lord ( v. 7 ). He did not insult Ahab’s prophets, but he made it clear that he did not trust them. Galatians 2:6 says that those who seem important add nothing unless they speak the truth (Gal. 2:6 ). One honest prophet is worth more than many who speak only to please.
