1 Kings 22
When Jehoshaphat asked Ahab to enquire of the Lord concerning the battle Ahab asked men whom he had hand-picked because they spoke favorable things. They spent their time speaking of how he could accomplish what he wanted rather than speaking of whether it was a good thing. Jehoshaphat could tell the difference and asked for a real prophet – who said they should go up but did not prophesy a good outcome for Ahab. Whith Jehoshaphat in royal clothes and Ahab in disguise the Syrians still left Jehoshaphat alone and managed to kill Ahab by chance.
