As a praying country, doing what is right is central to who we are. A gentleman named Naboth lost his land to a land grabber. Read 1 Kings 21:1-29 in the Bible for the whole story. The land grabber was a king named Ahab.

He tried to get the ancestral vineyard of Naboth but the poor man said it was an inheritance. He could not give it away for any price. King Ahab was distraught. At the scheming of Jezebel, the poor man was systematically murdered and Ahab got the vineyard for free.
