    Characteristics of Elijah's ministry; 5 lessons from God's "School of Faith"

    READ 1 KINGS 18:7-15 “Elijah the Tishbite of the inhabitants of Gilead;” this is literally all that we know about his parentage and locality. That’s remarkable considering we know about the genealogies of other prophets and leaders of Israel. Even the term “Tishbite” ...read more

    I continue messages on our trip to Israel. Last time we looked at Jeremiah who suffered for preaching the Word. Today the Hebrews crossed the Jordan and erected an altar in Gilgal about 3 miles from Jericho. Elijah did the same at Mt. Carmel where we visited. What makes an altar important?

    IT IS TIME TO REPAIR ALL BROKEN ALTARS 1. Joshua 4:1 And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over Jordan, that the Lord spake unto Joshua, saying, 2 Take you twelve men out of the people, out of every tribe a man, 3 And command ye them, saying, Take you hence out of the midst of ...read more

    One of God's promises that gives us great hope is that our prayers have power. Our God promises to hear and answer our prayers.

    A. One day three preachers sat discussing the best positions for prayer while a telephone repairman worked nearby. 1.

    “How long will you waver between two opinions?” We need revival! Every kind of problem and disaster has happened to the USA. Have we repented yet? Do we still hesitate to surrender all to Christ? "If Jehovah is God, then serve Him!"

    IF GOD IS GOD, THEN SERVE HIM! 1 Kgs 18:21-29, 36-39 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Watch your CHOICE OF WORDS 1. A doctor was called and asked to visit a sick home-bound man way out in the country.

    Last week we looked at Samson. Samson was physically strong but in some ways he was spiritually weak. We, too can be strong in some areas but weak in others. Today, we'll look at Elijah. He was bold and courageous...well, most of the time.

    JUST LIKE US (part four) Last week we looked at the example of Samson. When Samson was born he was given a special Nazirite vow. He couldn't drink alcohol or even grape juice. And he couldn't cut his hair. These conditions were to indicate that he would be noticeably set apart for a ...read more

    There was an alter sacrifice and the prophets of Baal keep chanting "oh, Baal, answer us!" for many hours, but nothing happened. Then, Elijah offered up a short prayer and God consumed the sacrifice. But soon after things took a turn for the worst.

    FROM A WARRIOR PRAYER TO A SORRIER PRAYER (THEN BACK AGAIN) INTRODUCTION: When I went through the Lord's Prayer a couple of weeks ago in regards to Jesus telling us to not pray as the pagans do I mentioned the account of Elijah and the prophets of Baal.

    You may be in the middle of the drought, you may not see any evidence of rain in the sky: But Elijah didn't say he saw, he said he heard: The Sound is your sign (The rain is on the way)

    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

    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
