Are you willing to loose your life for Jesus’s sake.
Prophet Uriah executed as a result of being God’s spokesman
Some people can’t sacrifice for anything that relates to divine purpose.
They can’t afford to even spend a night in the presence of the Lord .. they are all about themselves and to the interest that the world is willing to offer them
The bible talks about a prophet of the Lord who even when He fled to Egypt the king sent men to get him who later executed Him just because He spoke the same thing’s that Jeremiah was prophecying to the people and also to the land of Judah Jeremiah 26:20-23[20]And there was also a man who prophesied in the name of the Lord, Uriah son of Shemaiah of Kiriath-jearim, who prophesied against this city and against this land in words similar to those of Jeremiah.
[21]And when Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men and all the princes, heard his words, the king sought to put [Uriah] to death; but when Uriah heard of it, he was afraid and fled and escaped to Egypt.
[22]And Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt, namely, Elnathan son of Achbor and certain other men [who went] with him into Egypt.[23]And they fetched Uriah from Egypt and brought him to Jehoiakim the king, who slew him [God’s spokesman] with the sword and cast his dead body among the graves of the common people.
