Tempting fate

The prophet warned Ahab not to go into battle. Ahab defied the Lord and the host of heaven conspired against him (2Ch 18:18-19). Even though the king disguised himself and duped king Jehoshaphat into being a decoy, a random arrow found the chink in his armor (2Ch 18:33). Make your plans, take precautions, but know that if you live in defiance of God your sins will find you out. (Num 32:23) Be not deceived. God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man sows, that he will also reap. (Gal 6:7) The only refuge from God is in God.
