    Elijah asked the question which needs to be asked of God's people today..."How long will you sit on the fence?"

    HOW LONG 1 Kings 18:21 • The first message today is the first message of the church. “Jesus saves.” The second is likened unto the first, “Jesus and Jesus ONLY – SAVES.” The Bible records the very words of our Lord Jesus (John 3:16 & John 14:6). What does ...read more

    We've all been there and heard those faith destroying words sent from the devil (there is nothing) no money, no love, no hope, but God says in that very same place where you heard those words will come forth an abundance. The rain is on it's way.

    You know the story: Israel is being ruled by a wicked king named Ahab, he has not only led Israel away from God into Idolatry but he has also married a witch named Jezebel. Together they led the children of Israel into deep rebellion and false worship. God raised up a prophet that would not be ...read more

    A True Prophet Series

    The prophet Elijah was God’s instrument to test this Gentile widow’s trust. It’s easier to be reminded of God’s promises than to act on them.

    As someone who has moved 27 times in my life, I know that God decides how long we remain in place. I received orders from the Pentagon, but I regarded them as from God. Elijah was directly told when to move. We, on the other hand, do not have supernatural guidance, or access to God’s ...read more

    Elijah & Obadiah Series

     | 11,279 views

    Obadiah was a good man in a bad place, risking all to protect God's prophets...his concerns resonate with anyone with a stressful job, and show us the path to encouragement and reassurance.

    It would be easy to skip over this passage as merely a transition, leading to the exciting confrontation that follows on Mount Carmel. Yet this brief episode in the life of Elijah is for anyone who feels discouraged and defeated. Following three years of drought, three years of decisively ...read more

    A sermon that points out the dangers of procrastination.

    "No Man's Land" 1 Kings 18:21 INTRODUCTION: The term "No Man's Land" is most commonly associated with the First World War although the phrase "no man's land" actually dates back until at least the 14th century.

    The decisive, dramatic contest atop Mount Carmel, that compels us to determine who we will serve.

    Elijah has been called “the iron prophet.” After a three-year absence, he appears before Ahab; was he finally going to end the drought? The dry spell was indeed about to end, but first it must be established with no doubt as to who is God. The king accuses the prophet of ...read more

    In our churches today we no longer build altars for sacrifice but our altars still are used for some of the same purposes found in the Bible.

    The Broken Altar I KINGS 18:21-46 Note Here in Vs 30, “And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down.” Elijah found the altar was broken and in need of repair. WHAT WAS THE ...read more

    When there was severe draught in Israel because God had withheld rain in that place due to their wickedness and disobedience, Elijah prophesied ‘I can hear the sound of rain.’ Awesome!

    Can you hear what I hear? 1 King 18:41” And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain.” Some movie lovers and those who have musical ears, identify the movie tunes in a jiffy and then impeccably remember the lyrics and sing it, even ...read more

    The most amazing thing is that Elijah was the greatest of all the prophets and had the most effective ministry and yet, he reaches a point where the burdens and challenges become too much for him
