Lord, I pray I find my confidence in You. That I would not easily nor willingly agree to give to the enemy that which You have entrusted to me. God, please keep me from consenting to a pillaging by the one who hates You. I am glad to see the elders and the people hindered King Ahab from willfully opening his treasures to his enemy; but God, where do I give assent in a similar fashion, how do I throw away spiritual honors, gifts and jewel, what am I agreeing to that I should not? And, when I am asked, as the prophet requested a local to strike him, to do a difficult thing, a distasteful thing, a demanding thing, may I seek Your perspective before I refuse. God, help me to not miss Your invitation, Your call to action or prayer, You. Don't let my wisdom, experience and culture blind me to what You bestow on me.
