Description

How a Little-Known Prophet Shines Light on Christian Faithfulness in a Troubled World

Discover the inspiring story of Micaiah, the little-known prophet whose brief appearance in the Old Testament offers a powerful model of unwavering faithfulness. In A Forgotten Prophet, readers are invited to journey through the dramatic events of 2 Chronicles 18 and 1 Kings 22, where Micaiah stands alone against kings, false prophets, and overwhelming opposition. His courage to speak God’s truth—regardless of popularity, pressure, or personal cost—foreshadows the ultimate faithfulness of Jesus Christ and challenges today’s believers, especially pastors, to remain steadfast in a culture that often values affirmation over truth.

This book is a timely encouragement for anyone feeling discouraged or isolated in their Christian walk. Through vivid storytelling and deep biblical insight, A Forgotten Prophet reminds us that true success is not measured by acclaim or numbers, but by hearing, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” Whether you are a church leader or a follower of Christ seeking hope in difficult times, Micaiah’s story will inspire you to embrace your calling with courage, humility, and trust in God’s sovereign purposes.
