8-3-2014 - Naboth's Vineyard (1 Kings 21)


Days Of Elijah
Naboth’s Vineyard – 1 Kings 21



1          Seems like Ahab starts off with a pretty fair deal – why didn’t Naboth want to sell his vineyard?  Is there anything wrong or dumb about Naboth’s decision?  Why did it anger and frustrate Ahab?  Application??



2.         Jezebel fixes the problem – why did she choose this method?  Why not just seize it?



3.         God sends Elijah to Ahab to pronounce judgment – what is the price to be paid?



4          Ahab’s response to Elijah – so you have found me, my enemy – what does this tell us about how Ahab viewed this storyline so far



5          We hear that Ahab was the worst king Israel had (up to that point).  What is called out as the primary reason for his wickedness?  Are there foundational decisions or small decisions that we make that can change the direction of our lives? 




6.         What does Ahab’s repentance and God’s response at the end of the chapter tell us?
