I Kings 18:1-19: The Word of the LORD came to Elijah.

Rev. Nabil Nour of Trinity Lutheran, Hartford, SD joins host Rev. Brady Finnern to study I Kings 18:1-19.

“Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” These words from John the baptist rings in our ears as we see the persistent lack of repentance from Ahab. Even after 3 years and six months of drought, Ahab refuses to turn to the LORD. Elijah comes back on the scene with a confrontation, much like a good Western film, and they are about to meet up on Mt. Carmel---850 vs. 1, many gods vs. the One true God, A whole nation vs. one man. Who will be victorious? We know the answer, which reminds us the victory we have in our Lord Jesus Christ (I Corinthians 15:57). “Lord God, grant us repentance by Your Holy Spirit that we may incline our hearts to you and trust that Your way and Your truth is above anything else. Lord have mercy. Amen”
