"And I will come upon him while he weary and exhausted and will terrify him so that all the people who are with him will flee. Then I will strike down the king alone."
Ahithophel, was a man once motivated by God, we now find him moving swiftly in the flesh to exact revenge and payback for David, now in retreat from the capital city. From God's will, to I will, he was blinded by his passion. This portion of scripture gives us all fair warning of the pitfalls of the flesh, prone to our own circumstances, we at times tempted to giving in to our own "I wills". Whatever seeks to take us away from our focus of the Lord needs to be recognized and dealt with accordingly.
