SHOW NOTES: In Podcast Episode 300, “There Is No ‘Random’ in God’s Economy,“ Kim discusses the prophecies of God that were fulfilled in the demise of King Ahab of Israel. God used a “random” arrow to end Ahab’s evil reign, but was it really “random.” If this were a true crime podcast, we would look at the evidence and conclude the means to the end of Ahab was anything but random. Ahab tried to hide from the providential hand of God, and this strategy was a total failure. An alternate title for this episode would be, “You Can’t Hide from the Providential Hand of the Lord (Instead, Hide Within).” Our focal passage for this episode is 1 Kings 22:29-40 with 34 as the focal verse: 34 An Aramean soldier, however, randomly shot an arrow at the Israelite troops and hit the king of Israel between the joints of his armor. “Turn the horses and get me out of here!” Ahab groaned to the driver of his chariot. “I’m badly wounded! Connected prophecies: 42 The prophet said to him, “This is what the Lord says: Because you have spared the man I said must be destroyed, now you must die in his place, and your people will die instead of his people.” (1 Kings 20:42) 19 Give him this message: ‘This is what the Lord says: Wasn’t it enough that you killed Naboth? Must you rob him, too? Because you have done this, dogs will lick your blood at the very place where they licked the blood of Naboth!’” (1 Kings 21:19) 17 Then Micaiah told him, “In a vision I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, like sheep without a shepherd. And the Lord said, ‘Their master has been killed. Send them home in peace.’” (1 Kings 22:17) 23 “So you see, the Lord has put a lying spirit in the mouths of all your prophets. For the Lord has pronounced your doom.” (1 Kings 22:23) WEEKLY ENGAGEMENT FEATURE: Has there ever been a time you have tried to hide from the Lord? How did that work out?
