“And Jehoshaphat said, “Is there no prophet of the Lord here, through whom we may inquire of the Lord?” Then one of the king of Israel’s servants answered, “Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.” And Jehoshaphat said, “The word of the Lord is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him. And Elisha said to the king of Israel, “What have I to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father and to the prophets of your mother.” But the king of Israel said to him, “No; it is the Lord who has called these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab.” And Elisha said, “As the Lord of hosts lives, before whom I stand, were it not that I have regard for Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would neither look at you nor see you.”‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭3:11-14‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This stands out because Jehoshaphat says, “Is there no prophet of the Lord here, through whom we may inquire of the Lord?” The other two Kings were making decisions from their own knowledge, while King Jehoshaphat continued to seek a relationship with the Lord and didn’t want to make a decision without Him. I usually make the wrong decision when I don’t ask God first even when it seems to be so clear. God has seen tomorrow and He knows what is in people’s hearts. It seems crazy to not ask Him. Please pray that we and our friends seek the Lord’s counsel today. Please pray for the CLC prayer and fundraising breakfast on Nov 28th.
