Brian Mills
I Kings 18:41-46


So far in our Parched Collection of sermons, we have talked about....
Ruth and Boaz - Redemptive Story
Josiah - Clean the House
1 Kings 17 - Recognizing the provision during the Drought
1 Kings 18 - Let Faith Lead - Pick up the Post Hole Diggers
1 Kings 18 - Faithfulness of God

Let's read the whole passage to start...
I Kings 18:41-46 41 And Elijah said to Ahab, ''Go, eat and drink, for there is the sound of a heavy rain.'' 42 So Ahab went off to eat and drink, but Elijah climbed to the top of Carmel, bent down to the ground and put his face between his knees.

He then sends his servant to look for rain.

43 ''Go and look toward the sea,'' he told his servant. And he went up and looked. ''There is nothing there,'' he said. Seven times Elijah said, ''Go back.'' 44 The seventh time the servant reported, ''A cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea.'' So Elijah said, ''Go and tell Ahab, 'Hitch up your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.''' 45 Meanwhile, the sky grew black with clouds, the wind rose, a heavy rain started falling and Ahab rode off to Jezreel. 46 The power of the Lord came on Elijah and, tucking his cloak into his belt, he ran ahead of Ahab all the way to Jezreel.


I Kings 18:41-46 41 And Elijah said to Ahab, ''Go, eat and drink, for there is the sound of a heavy rain.''

Drought Seasons require invisible faith.
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

I know 2020 has been crazy!!!
Covid-19 caused the church to move into a Drought season.
