Word of the Day - 3/11/2008

Actuate

To actuate is to incite or move to action; impel; motivate.

Ahab is said to be the most wicked king in Israel’s history. I Kings tells us that this was in part because his wife, the notorious Jezebel, actuated him. (I Kings 21:25)

Surely there was no one like Ahab who sold himself to do evil in the sight of the LORD, because Jezebel his wife incited him. (I Kings 21:25, NASB)
