Today’s Bible Verse:
"The king of Israel answered, 'There is still one prophet through whom we can inquire of the Lord, but I hate him because he never prophesies anything good about me. — 1 Kings 22:8

This verse exposes a timeless tension—our struggle with truth when it challenges our comfort. King Ahab rejected Micaiah’s prophecy because it wasn’t what he wanted to hear, even though it was what he needed to hear. In the same way, God’s truth often confronts us before it transforms us.
