    Today we are going to read about a woman whose faith is expressed through generosity. It is found for us in 1 Kings Chapter 17. In chapter 17, Elijah has just declared that no rain will fall in Israel for a period of years. We read how the Lord provides f

    Last week we began looking at some men and women of the Old Testament. We began this with a man by the name of Noah. He was commended for his faith in Hebrews 11, and we saw that because of his faith, he was obedient. He was obedient in his submission, and in his service. These were an expression ...read more

    Of all the Old Testament prophets, not one is mentioned more or is held in higher esteem in the New Testament than the prophet Elijah. His ministry is significant for a variety of different reasons and his experiences are valuable to us in a number of way

     | 11,098 views

    This is a sermon about the promises of God that are just that - promises He intends to keep. They are as valid today as they were when He made them. They are for those who are His children through thier faith in Jesus Christ.

    Power of the Surrendered Life I Kings 17 Intro: Hi! My name is Tim and I like to be in control. I like things to go my way. I like to know what’s coming and what I’m going to do about it. Deep down inside, all of us like to be in control, to be the boss of our own destiny. We want to ...read more

     | 36,948 views

    I Kings 17 is a litany of the events that shaped and prepared Elijah for his greatest challenge (facing the prophets of Baal on Mt. Carmel). How did God use these circumstances to train Elijah... and how does God use events in our lives to train us?

    The devil is hounding for a way to attack you, isolate you from godly and helpful people, make you hopeless and miserable. Caveat!

    All-out attack! 1 King 17:14”….I, even I only, am left, and they seek my life, to take it away." I must tell you this, though it is past ten in the night, I sit to type this devotion today, since the devil is taking everyone for a ride! Caution! I never expected a wonderful woman ...read more

    A first sermon message in which Elijah is transported to a modern day congregation to share how God shaped him.

    “Getting Into Shape: When Faith Doesn’t make Sense” 1 Kings 17:1-16 Good morning. I suppose I should tell you a little about myself. Oddly, in the Scriptures I have no introduction – I just all of a sudden appear in what you know as 1 Kings 17. My name is Elijah – ...read more

    Following God's instructions into unkown territory becomes the antithesis for faith that pleases Him.

    I want to begin my sermonic presentation by making a clear cut statement that I believe everybody needs to know and believe—and that is God has created everyone of us to live by faith. And as a consequence, every child of God is wired to perform and live by faith. Now what that means is that ...read more

    Our life is a series of "divine appointments" as Christians. While most people think that most ministry is done by "superstars" of the faith or by megachurches, in truth the bulk of Christian work is done by average guys. See https://vimeo.com/88045219 .

    Elijah And The Woman With Sticks (A Mothering Sunday Sermon) Series

    God will always find a way to speak to us. Sometimes it's a verse of scripture. Sometimes it’s a song. Sometimes it’s His voice we hear. Sometimes He will use a person. For this woman, God brings the prophet Elijah into her life.

    Today is Mothering Sunday and in many places around the world the focus will be on mothers. I think it is fair to say that simply having children does not make a woman a mother. Abraham Lincoln said: No one is poor who has a godly mother Napoleon said, “The future destiny of a child is the work of ...read more

    Elijah met the Widow of Zarephath just as she was preparing to eat her last supper. It's a wonderful story of God's provision if we would only learn to trust him.

    Getting Ready for the Last Supper Sunday, March 13, 2011 PM By Pastor James May If there’s one prophet of the Old Testament that I love reading about it has to be Elijah.

    The widow of Zarapheth, like many Christians, did not realize her importance to God, her usefulness to the kingdom, nor her right standing before God. A message to encourage those whose value is hidden to themselves and others.
