Song: God of miracles come
The abundance of rain is coming
1 Kings 17:1/ 18:1/ 18:41-46
God tell Elijah he send rain to the land (Ahab) after 3.5 years of drought
God favour will come when abundance of rain is coming.
What 3 characters here?
Elijah - drought came bcoz of the disobedience of the ppl.
King Ahab - evil king who rule Israel, Jezebel evil queen he married.
Israelites - follow blindly king Ahab and Jezebel. Revival broke out. The Lord He’s God see the Mount camel
How to response correctly to experience abundance of rain?
What happen before abundance of rain came?
1. Elijah left no middle ground. (How long will u limping, wavering between 2 obedience, indecisiveness, worship God and also baal, compromised) Elijah said either u serve God Yahweh or Baal, u choose. Middle ground has to be disappear, Elijah deal w middle ground. Take mark of the beast or stand for God. Follow God truth!
Q: Are u a limping Christian?
2. Elijah repair the broken altar.
Altar symbolise prayer, reading the word, fellowship,yielding to purpose of God,
Why broken down?
2 reasons
- Attack fr satanic / enemy of God.
Jesus says my house be called the house of prayer. Don’t allow enemy to tear down our family altar!
- negligent will break our altar, we didn’t take care. Like house. Elijah recognise prayer needed for restoration of the nations.
3. Elijah prepare for God to show up. He methodically arranged the woods & sacrifice. making preparation for fire of God to come down. Today sanctification produced tmrw Wonders! We do that and expect God to move. It’s essential.
4. Sin was removed from the camp when fire of God comes, conviction came! Search us.
5. Elijah prayed earnestly.
6. Elijah’s zeal was for the glory of God. Elijah focus on God, that they know that u are God!! Pointing to God and for the glory of God! Passion/zeal, Revival is for the glory of God. See God name glorified not bcoz of ours
God will is every one will come to the knowledge of Him.
***If u believe the Lord is God, then follow Him*** Not to say it’s the right thing to do, it’s not good enuf, based on who u believed. Not follow my parent.
It’s all about God. Who do u says I am?
Result : spiritual restoration and revival
God mercy was extended to King Ahab. God wants to bring him bck. Cloud black, heavy rain came.
Gc
Pray for Job earnestly
