Halting Between Two Opinions Series

Contributed by Philip Harrelson on Nov 15, 2015

Hokey Pokey Christians

Contributed by Carol Moore on Aug 16, 2019

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. After he saw that I was not going to become an invalid anytime soon, he came to me and said, “Pick any place is the world you want to go, Sis, and we’ll go.” I ...read more

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

The Memorial That Disappeared Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jun 11, 2021

The story of Elijah and the prophets of Baal is a classic. What we sometimes forget is that a memorial, an altar to the LORD, was already there before Elijah came! The rest of the story is gripping!

Introduction: The days of Elijah were some of the best and some of the worst in Israel’s history. One of the highest points took place when God responded to Elijah’s prayer in a way that nobody could deny. Not only did this take place in the presence of pagan prophets, the event also took place ...read more

Necessity & Intensity Of Prayers That Brings Outstanding Miracles

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Aug 28, 2021

Reading 1 Kings chapter 18, we see the necessity and intensity of prayer that brings about outstanding miracles and solutions.

A. It is prayer that activates the fulfilment of God’s promises: The title of this message includes the word ‘necessity’ because: ? Although God had promised rain in 1 Kings 18:1 that He would send rain, Elijah still needed to pray before the fire fell and before the rain came. ? Although the ...read more

These Are The Days Of Elijah

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 20, 2021

Jesus seems to speak about two comings of Elijah, one that lies in the future “to restore all things” and another in their immediate past concerning John the Baptist, who would call the nation to repentance. Those days are here again!

1Ki 17:1 And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word. 1Ki 18:17 ¶ And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, ...read more

Rebuilding Altars Series

Contributed by Mike Hullah on Jan 16, 2019

Just Like Us (Part Four)

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Mar 3, 2019

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
