Coming up next

When the word of the Lord came to Elijah with a promise to pray for rain, Elijah took action. He took God at His word. Therefore, believer, we have promises given by God and we must take action to pray them and see great answers to prayer.

When Elijah went to pray he didn’t ask Ahab to join him in prayer because Ahab followed a false religion whereas Elijah followed the Lord. We are reminded in Scripture there is no fellowship between true and error. They who worship must do so in truth not in compromise.

Once the fire had fallen upon the sacrifice at Mount Carmal and Elijah heard a sound of abundance of rain, Elijah then went further up into the Mountain to get alone with God to seek Him in prayer. He came apart to spend time alone with God. Believer we also must take time apart and spend time alone with God in prayer.
