    Elijah Series

     | 3,975 views

    Elijah was a mighty man of God. He stood like a stone wall against idolatry, and he was not afraid to speak truth to power or tell the people what they needed to hear.

    February 11, 2023 The bible tells us Elijah was from the town of Tishbe, but we don’t anything about his background or who his parents were. His name means, “Yahweh is my God,” and he certainly lived up to his name, standing in sharp contrast against the idolatry of the day. His primary ...read more

    God Loves Us Too Much To Leave Us

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 7, 2022

    God wants a holy people, worshiping rightly and living rightly. He loves us too much to leave us in sin.

    Saturday of the 2nd Week in Advent Recently it was time for me to prune a couple of grapevines growing in our garden. We don’t actually harvest the fruit; they provide attractive foliage on our two arbors and give the birds something to eat. The psalmist speaks of God’s people, Israel, as His ...read more

    When God Shuts The Heavens To Speak To A Nation Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 15, 2025
     | 252 views

    1 Kings 17 shows us that in times of spiritual and economic famine, God is never without a voice or a plan. Elijah's boldness, the widow’s obedience, and God's miracles remind us that we serve a God who speaks, provides, tests, and resurrects.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Kings 17:1-24 Supporting Texts: James 5:17-18; Psalm 33:18-19; Philippians 4:19; Hebrews 11:6; Luke 4:25-26 INTRODUCTION: 1 Kings 17 introduces us to one of the most powerful prophets in Scripture—Elijah the ...read more

    God sends His prophet, Elijah, not to a wealthy household, not to a powerful leader, but to a poor, grieving Gentile widow.

    Elijah had been staying with a widow and several others in Zarephath, outside Israel's borders. Tragedy struck when the widow's son died. What would happen next?

    Introduction: Elijah had come to Zarephath, a city in Sidon—Jezebel’s home country!—at the LORD’s command after living near the brook Cherith in Israel. In Zarephath, he stayed in a boarding house, we might say, operated by the widow whom the LORD had shown him. It seemed things were going well, ...read more

    When God Turns On The Light

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Oct 14, 2025
     | 281 views

    Elijah’s encounter with the widow of Zarephath shows how God uses seasons of loss and exposure to bring healing and faith. When God turns on the light, it isn’t to shame us, but to lead us to confession, forgiveness, and life.

    When God Turns on the Light GM. Elijah may almost seem like a superhero when you read through some of the events in his life: He’s the prophet who calls down fire from heaven a number of times, most famously in the Battle on Mt Carmel with the Prophets of Baal. At the end of his life, he ascends ...read more
