The Last Straw Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jul 5, 2010

Ahab goes one step too fr and God decides to act in judgement of him and Jezebel. Yet even then God's mercy is to the fore.

Reading through the story of Ahab and Jezebel, I occasionally feel a bit sorry for Ahab. He gets a glimpse every now and then of what’s the right thing to do. You feel like he’d really like to do the right thing, but he’s made so many bad decisions in the past that he just ...read more

A friend of mine told me of the kings of the Old Testament this really good insight: “There’s never a period in your life where you cannot identify with some stage of one of the kings of Israel or Judah.”

God Will Provide

Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 13, 2015

We are called on to act in a manner that pleases God. Elijah’s actions did not please God, but God still gave him what he needed to persevere in faith. We are called on to be united in Christ. We are to be one body that is wholly obedient to God.

The events we read about in 1 Kings 19:1-9 occur just after Elijah and God have won the challenge against the gods of Baal. As a result of the deaths of the prophets of Baal, Queen Jezebel threatened to kill Elijah. Elijah has been forced to flee for his life. Elijah was discouraged. He had faced ...read more

A Still, Small Voice Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Oct 27, 2013

Elijah is discouraged, but not for the reasons most people offer. It is popular to portray Elijah intimidated by vicious Jezebel and running scared in a cowardly retreat, yet his desert journey is not a sign of weakness.

Elijah enjoyed a triumphant showdown at Mount Carmel. As we consider the aftermath, we’re apt to focus on what appears to be weakness in Elijah. This is largely due to how this passage has been translated and interpreted. The Elijah seems to be a different man in the turn of a page. Is ...read more

When The Church Needs Intolerance Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 23, 2022

Many times churches become stagnant because of intolerance. They will not accept those different from themselves. That is why it seems surprising that Jesus himself delivers a message on intolerance.

Intolerance has a negative connotation. Many times churches become stagnant because of intolerance. They will not accept those different from themselves.

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on May 29, 2013

I don’t want to be too hard on Jezebel this morning, so let me tell you that she was born with some great abilities and qualities. However, she elected to use them in the wrong fashion.

TITLE: THE ROOSTER MAY CROW BUT THE HEN DELIVERS THE GOODS SCRIPTURE: I KINGS 21:25 I must admit to you this morning that preaching a sermon on Mother’s Day with Jezebel anywhere in the topic may not seem like a wise idea. Mothers are revered – Mother’s are respected - ...read more

Elijah’s Last Message To Ahab Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 17, 2024

Ahab was king of the Ten Northern Tribes (Israel) and wanted to purchase a vineyard growing next to his palace, The owner wouldn't sell, so Jezebel (the queen) took matters into her own hands. The results were not pretty.

Introduction: After Elijah had left Mount Horeb and returned to Israel, he seems to be out of the picture for a while. King Ahab, though, had been very busy with wars against Syria (see 1 Kings 20). After that, Ahab saw a vineyard belonging to someone else but Ahab wanted it anyway. He got it, all ...read more

Elijah—a Time To Flee, To Learn, And To Return Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 4, 2024

Suppose you had run for your life but received word to go back to where this took place again! This happened to Elijah after he received a death threat from Jezebel, wife of King Ahab of Northern Israel!

Introduction: Sometimes after a positive experience, something awful comes along. These could be trials; they could be threats; they could be any number of things but one thing is for sure: the one who is going through it, probably wishes “I don’t want to go through this!” Elijah had a set of ...read more

A Generation Of Spoiled Children

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018

As a church body of believers separated to God we have rejected God’s call to repentance collectively just as Israel as a nation has rejected Jesus as Messiah. We have gotten comfortable with our sin. So much so we don’t even call it sin anymore.

A Generation of Spoiled Children Matthew 11:16-30 Have you ever tried to please a group of children by suggesting they all pick out just one game or one activity to do together?
