About this episode
Why do the wicked seem to succeed while the righteous suffer? King Ahab and Queen Jezebel thought they could seize what they wanted without consequence. But as today’s episode of The Wisdom Journey reveals, God’s justice cannot be ignored. Stephen Davey explores how God repeatedly warned Ahab, giving him time to repent. But his refusal to turn from sin led to a tragic downfall. If you’ve ever struggled with injustice in the world, this episode will remind you that no one escapes God’s accountability. His judgment is sure, and His mercy is available—but only for those who repent.
