17 Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Let me choose twelve thousand men, and I will set out in pursuit of David tonight. 2 I will attack him while he is weary and discouraged, throw him into a panic, and all the people with him will scatter. I will strike down only the king 3 and bring all the people back to you. When everyone returns except the man you’re looking for, all the people will be at peace.” 4 This proposal seemed right to Absalom and all the elders of Israel.

MFM Devotional – 18th September 2025 MESSAGE:
The Bible records that David, by the grace of God, enjoyed the company, loyalty and services of divine helpers of various kinds. The Bible also says that God made them available to David like the stars of Heaven. They were called the mighty men of David. Apart from these valiant men of war, David also had men who were skilled in military intelligence and were special advisers. One of them was Ahitophel. The Bible likens Ahitophel to an oracle of God. His advice was highly respected.
However, a time came when Ahitophel left David’s camp and joined forces with Absalom who was scheming to topple his father’s government and take over the throne. Ahitophel’s defection was at the highest level of David’s administration. David knew he was in danger and prayed earnestly to God to frustrate the counsel of Ahitophel. God did.
I pray that the Lord will hear you in the day of trouble and the Name of the God of Israel will defend you, in Jesus’ Name.
The gang up of Absalom, Ahitophel and others at this time was against the Lord and His anointed, David. It took that Holy Spirit inspired prayer points to bail David out. Heaven intervened and Absalom openly rejected the counsel of Ahitophel. 2 Samuel 17:14 says, “And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahitophel. For the LORD had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahitophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon Absalom.”
That, perhaps, was the first time Ahitophel’s counsel was rejected. He felt so highly embarrassed that he went home and committed suicide. Absalom who headed the coup against his father also died miserably.
God is the Reverser of the Irreversible. He turned the counsel of Ahitophel to nought. He converted the point of honour in Ahitophel’s life to point of dishonour because Ahitophel was working against David, the anointed of the Lord.
I pray that the desire of the wicked concerning you shall perish and every counsel of the wicked for your life shall be frustrated in the order of the counsel of Ahitophel against David, in the Name of Jesus.
