‘Put Micaiah in the prison.’
(For his warning Ahab spurned.)
‘Give him only bread and water,
until safely I’ve returned.’

‘I will go disguised to battle,
then the other king they’ll shoot
(royally robed) – the enemy realised
he was not King Ahab, but

someone drew his bow at random,
Ahab’s schemed disguise no use
pierced between the armour pieces:
he’d been warned his life he’d lose.

Hopefully Micaiah was not
left in prison! God controls
even random acts, so heed the
words of love of Him who knows.
cf 2 Chronicles chapter 18::5-34
