King warns that it will rain Faith of Elijah The Prophet Elijah Using the power of faith



41 Then Elijah said to Ahab, Go up, eat and drink, because there is a sound of abundance of rain. 42 Ahab came up out to eat and drink, but Elijah climbed to the top of Caramel, and bowed to the ground, put his face between his knees. 43 And he said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went and looked and said, "Nothing. And he said, Go again seven times. 44 It happened at the seventh time, he said, Behold, the sea rises a cloud, the size of the hand of a man, Elijah said, "Come up and say to Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and go down, that no rain stop you. 45 And as soon the sky was black with clouds and wind, and was a great rain. Ahab went up to the car, went to Jezreel: 46 And the hand of the Lord was on Elijah, he girded up his loins and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.

1 Kings 18: 41-46

When Elijah said:

41 Then Elijah said to Ahab, Go up, eat and drink, because there is a sound of abundance of rain. - 1 Kings 18: 41

That region was going through a severe drought for years because it was not raining there. The prophet Elijah knew that was going to rain?

I knew it!

How did he know?

By faith!

The prophet Elijah materialized rain before it occurs. He said:

Go up, eat and drink, because there is a sound of abundance of rain. - 1 Kings 18: 41 The prophet Elisha used his faith in a spectacular way. He prophesied and then bent the knee to acknowledge receipt of the blessing. When he asked the boy to see if the rain was coming, given the delays of God, he did not quit. He did not murmur. He persevered. Even having to wait to God he persisted in faith and not discouraged. Using his power he waited with faith in God and God performed the work in his life.

If I had to wait more times the prophet Elijah would have expected as many times as necessary because he knew that God had already done the work. Only God who performs the work when he feels better when he sees that it is the best time, because all things work together for good to them that love God.

So do not despair. Wait on the Lord that He will. Do not get discouraged and do not mumble. Just believe, praise and thank God for blessings received.

Amen and Thank God.
