Never Be Wise in Your Own Eyes

1 Kings 20

Inspired thots

King Ahab started off well SEEKING the Lord's direction with specific instructions against his enemy, Ben-hadad the Syrian. But when battles are won, King Ahab did not depend on God as much; he even made his own decision ~ to spare Ben-hadad's life ~ which was detrimental to his own life.

Lesson:  
Never be wise in your own eyes; no matter how many victories were obtained. It was God at work to give those victories; not self. Hence, I must always remain humble and remember that it was GOD who worked in me and through me to give me the victory. It is His grace and mercy through which I enjoy victory after victory; blessing after blessing.
