God’s Sovereignty in Micaiah

Imagine being in battle, closing your eyes, and taking a random shot toward the battlefield with your bow and arrow. Then imagine learning that your arrow had struck and killed the king. This story sounds like one of great chance or luck out of an imaginary storybook, but it is a story from God’s Word that demonstrates His precise sovereignty. In this lesson, Dr. Thomas looks at the sovereignty of God in the story of the prophet Micaiah and King Ahab.
