This sermon reminds us we can take great encouragement from the way God used Elijah.
These verses remind us that Elijah was a simple human just like us. Therefore, despite doing mighty things for God he also had weaknesses, doubts, struggles, challenges, and trials just like us.
However, Elijah surrendered himself to God offering up his life to be used by God. He demonstrated a dependence on hearing and acting upon the Word of God. He also demonstrated a fervent dependence on praying to God his heavenly Father.
Lord, help us to be like Elijah in being dependent on your Word and in praying to you our heavenly Father.
