    A sermon about making a choice.

    1 Kings 18:20-39 "Stop Sitting on the Fence" Ahab, son of Omri, ruled over the Northern Kingdom of Israel for 22 years, and he is described in 1 Kings Chapter 16 as being more evil than all the Kings who had come before him.

    Prevarication is not an option!

    THE CONTEST ON MOUNT CARMEL. 1 Kings 18:20-39. The prophet Elijah is nothing if not bold in his confrontation with King Ahab. The king accused Elijah of being “he that troubles Israel” (1 Kings 18:17). The prophet’s retort was rather to accuse Ahab and his family of troubling Israel, as they had ...read more

    The decisive, dramatic contest atop Mount Carmel, that compels us to determine who we will serve.

    Elijah has been called “the iron prophet.” After a three-year absence, he appears before Ahab; was he finally going to end the drought? The dry spell was indeed about to end, but first it must be established with no doubt as to who is God. The king accuses the prophet of ...read more

    Part two focuses on the third indicator of our becoming lukewarm - caught between two opinions (indecisiveness.)

    Somos llamados a crecer, no podemos vivir una vida conformista.

    1 Reyes 18:20-40 VENCIENDO AL GIGANTE DEL CONFORMISMO Hay un gigante que puede destruirnos, dejarnos estancados y sin fruto: Es el gigante del conformismo. Es una resignación que nos lleva a pensar que ya no podemos hacer nada con nuestros problemas y luchas. Es una actitud de abandono. Es dejar ...read more

    But The People Were Silent

     | 9,473 views

    The people of God must never keep silent in the midst of attack on the message of the gospel. Elijah took a stand even in a hostile and homicidal environment. The people had so much compromised that they could not choose for Jehovah God.

    BUT THE PEOPLE WERE SILENT 1 Kings 18:17-39 17 And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? 18 And Elijah answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the Lord, and thou ...read more

    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

    Part 2 of series on Elijah, talks about the idols we are led astray by.

    Which God Will You Worship? Elijah #2 I am definitely not a fan of the San Francisco Giants, especially because they beat the Reds in the playoffs last year. Their starting pitcher in game 5 against us was Barry Zito, and I was reading an article about him last week. Barry Zito was once known as ...read more

    When You Really Need God To Show Up

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 5, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,442 views

    The story is Elijah's proposed show-down between God and Baal at Mount Carmel. God doesn't want just part of us. He wants all of us, and he will tolerate no substitute, because he knows nothing else will satisfy in his place.

    1 Kings 18:20-39 When You Really Need God to Show Up Today’s story might be called, “The Great Show-down at Mount Carmel.” It is an ultimate, winner-takes-all kind of challenge, Yahweh God vs. Baal. Which one is real? Which one will come through for his people? But why all the ...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. One of the preachers said, “Kneeling is definitely best and most effective position for prayer.” 2. “Not so,” another preacher contended, “I get the best results in prayer by ...read more

    As I stood on Mt. Carmel, looking down toward the valley below, I listened to our tour guide and thought of the story of Elijah, Ahab, and the prophets. In my mind's eye, I could hear Elijah telling the Israelites they must choose between God and Baal.

    My dad didn’t know how to deal with my being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. He never asked me any questions but just watched me.

    Elijah The Prophet Of Fire Series

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 11, 2021
     | 5,896 views

    Elijah broke into the atmosphere of human history like a comet. We have no story of his birth or background. His coming was as sudden and mysterious as was his going in the flaming chariot.

    Elijah was the Luther of the Old Testament. He was God's man of the hour to begin a reformation and lead the children of Israel back to God. For about 50 years devotion to God had been decreasing. Ahab was now king in Israel, and he was more wicked than all who had gone before him. He married ...read more

    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
