That's Not Yours!

1 Kings 21

I pray blessings on you as you read.

(v. 3-4) "Naboth told Ahab, 'The LORD has forbidden me to give you what I inherited from my ancestors.' Resentful and upset, Ahab went home because of what Naboth from Jezreel had told him. So Ahab lay on the couch, turned his face from everyone, and refused to eat." (v. 7) "His wife Jezebel said to him, 'Aren't you king of Israel? Get up, eat, and cheer up. I'll give you the vineyard belonging to Naboth from Jezreel.' " (v. 13) "The two good-for-nothing men came in and sat opposite him. In front of the people, these men accused Naboth of cursing God and the king. So the people stoned him to death outside the city."
