Sharper Iron From Kfuo Radio

When Ahab desires to purchase the vineyard of Naboth to convert it into a vegetable garden, Naboth faithfully refuses to sell the inheritance God has given to his family. Ahab’s pity party is rebuked by his wicked queen, Jezebel, who takes matters into her own hands. Although outwardly she puts together what seems to be a legal scenario, her ungodly scheming and covetousness costs Naboth his life. The LORD sees the sins of Jezebel and Ahab and sends Elijah to prophesy their family’s destruction. Ahab rightly mourns, and the word of the LORD graciously responds that the destruction of Ahab’s family will be delayed until the days of Ahab’s son.  Rev.
