    First of all, do you remember what Elijah’s name in the Hebrew means? It means “Yahweh is my God.” This prophet’s name very clearly defined his mission, to demonstrate or prove that “Yahweh is, in fact, not only his God but the only true and living God.”

    Elijah Part II "Showdown on the Mountain" 1 Kings 18:1-39 1 And it came to pass after many days that the word of the LORD came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, "Go, present yourself to Ahab, and I will send rain on the earth." 2 So Elijah went to present himself to Ahab; and there was a ...read more

    In this lesson, we see Elijah stand all alone against the prophets of Baal and Asherah. We learn many things from Elijah's example, including the difference one person can make.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of a man who was solo skydiving for the very first time. 1. He had taken all the lessons and now it was time for his first solo jump. 2. He leapt out of the plane and as he was falling he panicked and couldn’t remember how to open his parachute. 3. As he ...read more

    A message to encourage intimacy with the Lord

    It feels like a long time since I’ve stood up here, but every time I go abroad and come back to church the only thing I really feel like saying is, “it’s good to be home.” I’ve been visiting the Middle East as part of my job now for about 6 months – and it might surprise you to learn that when I ...read more

    We have a certain idea of what revival is and how to get it. Take a good look at the 18th chapter of First Kings, and you may see it a little differenty.

    Not the Status Quo Revival from 1 Kings 18:21-41 James 5:17,18 17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. {subject...: of the same nature, that is, a fellow ...read more

    When The Fire Falls

    Ahab and Elijah meet face to face. Ahab thought he had the true god, but only a counterfeit. Elijah knew he had to one and only True God, and knew what it took for God’s fire to fall.

    WHEN THE FIRE FALLS There are certain times when God moves in a very special way that brings the fire upon people. Fire as we know does something special. It purifies, consumes, motivates and shows final judgment. Here the fire is the symbol, evidence and manifestation of God’s Presence and ...read more

    This message is not for ‘status quo people, lazy people or people who love to live a mediocre life’, I here speak to people who would love to usurp to the next level for God! Are you listening?

    Phony facelifts! 1 King 18:42”Elijah went up to the top of Mount Carmel. And he bowed himself down on the earth and put his face between his knees.” Just after a magnificent, stupendous and glorious crusade, where God manifests Himself in a mighty way and proves His power on mount ...read more
