Prophet Advisors

Do prophets make good advisors for kings of Israel? Sincerely,
Seeking Counsel

Dear Seeking Counsel,

Prophets did make good advisors, but today there are no prophets (read “The Lost Art Of Prophecy” for details).  The kings of Israel would inquire of God all the time for all sorts of things.  The first king of Israel, Saul, was upset because God would no longer answer his inquiries when Saul started behaving wickedly (1 Sam 28:6).  King David asked for God’s advice even when it came to battle tactics (2 Sam 5:23).  It was commonplace for the righteous kings to ask God for advice in all sorts of spheres.   SB
