<p>In vain had Ahab disguised himself. He was borne in his <br />
      chariot bleeding from the fray—for &quot;an Armenian soldier<br />
      <strong>randomly </strong>shot an arrow at the Israelite troops, and the <br />
      arrow hit the king of Israel between the joints of his <br />
      armour!&quot; 1 Kings 22:34<br />
      <br />
      No, not in the true sense of the word &quot;randomly.&quot; <strong><br />
        <br />
        That heathen marksman</strong> was only an instrument in <br />
      accomplishing the fulfilment of &quot;the word of the Lord <br />
      which He spoke by the mouth of Elijah the prophet.&quot; <br />
      <strong>A Greater had feathered the fatal shaft, and sent<br />
        it home!</strong>
