Be Obadiah
“Ahab called Obadiah who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly; for when Jezebel destroyed the prophets of the LORD, Obadiah took a hundred prophets and hid them by fifties in a cave, and provided them with bread and water.)” (1 Kings 18:3-4)
Ahab was one of the wickedest kings that Israel ever had, and yet, within his inner circle was one of the bravest God-fearing men you could ever hope to meet. Obadiah saved the lives of Jews from extermination long before movies were made about people with that kind of courage.
In the darkest of eras, don’t underestimate the goodness of God’s people or the preserving salt of their influence.
