Last week we looked at the showdown between the prophets of Baal and Elijah. That was likely the most spectacular moment that any Israelite had ever witnessed. If that was the most spectacular, then this week we looked at the most important: rain.
Now that Yahweh’s demonstrated his victory in so dramatic a fashion, it’s time to end the drought with a big ol’ rainstorm. This short narrative demonstrates four elements of the Christian life clearly:
- Humility
- Faith
- Abundance
- Strength
I had to clip out the parts of the message where we discussed the topics as a congregation, since I was the only one with a microphone. Feel free to share any of your experiences on these four topics in the comments.
