Elijah: Fighting Depression

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 29, 2016

In a contest on Mt. Carmel, he was God's instrument to prove to Israel that Jehovah was the Lord. But after that amazing victory Elijah sank into the depths of despair. He sat down under a juniper tree and asked God to take his life. Does that surprise you about a man of God? I hope not.

Tom Lowe 6/26/16 ELIJAH: FIGHTING DEPRESSION (Text: 1 Kings 18-19) Depression is the common cold of our emotions. Eventually it touches everyone—even God's people.

The Life And Times Of Elijah Series

Contributed by Kenneth Squires on Sep 25, 2002

Compares Elijah’s time at the Brook Cherith with military boot camp and how God prepares us for service.

When you say the word boot camp, the civilian and enlisted, retired and reserved all conjure up pictures of freshly shaved heads, dog tags, fatigues and, as Chuck Swindoll says, fatigue. It is through the doors of boot camp that an 18-year old from Kiowa, Kansas is shaped into a soldier by doing ...read more

We never get what we expect or deserve, we get what we need for spiritual growth, and we recieve grace and mercy.

Wouldn’t it have been easier if God just would’ve have simply killed Ahab and Jezebel and replaced them with a Godly king and queen?
