Did Elijah come hither to meet with God? he shall find that God will meet him. Despair of success hinders many a good enterprise.

Am I where I should be? whither God calls me, where my business lies, and where I may be useful? He complained of the people, and their obstinacy in sin I only am left. It concerns us often to ask whether we are in our place, and in the way of our duty. Verses 9-13 The question God put, What doest thou here, Elijah? is a reproof. God knows what he designs us for, though we do not, what services, what trials, and he will take care that we are furnished with grace sufficient. God thus left Elijah to himself, to show that when he was bold and strong, it was in the Lord, and the power of his might but of himself he was no better than his fathers. His was not the deliberate desire of grace, as Paul's, to depart and be with Christ. He might be serviceable to Israel at this time, and had all reason to depend upon God's protection, while doing God's work yet he flees. Carnal hearts are hardened and enraged against God, by that which should convince and conquer them. Verses 1-8 Jezebel sent Elijah a threatening message. 28:14 2 Kin.Elijah flees to the wilderness. Then he arose and followed Elijah, and became his servant. 20 And he left the oxen and ran after Elijah, and said, ( Y)“Please let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you.”Īnd he said to him, “Go back again, for what have I done to you?”Ģ1 So Elisha turned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen and slaughtered them and ( Z)boiled their flesh, using the oxen’s equipment, and gave it to the people, and they ate.

Then Elijah passed by him and threw his ( X)mantle on him. 18 ( V)Yet I have reserved seven thousand in Israel, all whose knees have not bowed to Baal, ( W)and every mouth that has not kissed him.” Elisha Follows Elijahġ9 So he departed from there, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he was with the twelfth. 17 ( S)It shall be that whoever escapes the sword of Hazael, Jehu will ( T)kill and whoever escapes the sword of Jehu, ( U)Elisha will kill. And ( R)Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel Meholah you shall anoint as prophet in your place. 16 Also you shall anoint ( Q)Jehu the son of Nimshi as king over Israel. I alone am left and they seek to take my life.”ġ5 Then the Lord said to him: “Go, return on your way to the Wilderness of Damascus ( P)and when you arrive, anoint Hazael as king over Syria. ( N)Suddenly a voice came to him, and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”ġ4 ( O)And he said, “I have been very zealous for the Lord God of hosts because the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. ( I)I alone am left and they seek to take my life.” God’s Revelation to Elijahġ1 Then He said, “Go out, and stand ( J)on the mountain before the Lord.” And behold, the Lord ( K)passed by, and ( L)a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind and after the wind an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake 12 and after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire and after the fire a still small voice.ġ3 So it was, when Elijah heard it, that ( M)he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood in the entrance of the cave. 7 And the angel of the Lord came back the second time, and touched him, and said, “Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for you.” 8 So he arose, and ate and drank and he went in the strength of that food forty days and ( D)forty nights as far as ( E)Horeb, the mountain of God.ĩ And there he went into a cave, and spent the night in that place and behold, the word of the Lord came to him, and He said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”ġ0 So he said, ( F)“I have been very ( G)zealous for the Lord God of hosts for the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and ( H)killed Your prophets with the sword. And he ( C)prayed that he might die, and said, “It is enough! Now, Lord, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers!”ĥ Then as he lay and slept under a broom tree, suddenly an angel touched him, and said to him, “Arise and eat.” 6 Then he looked, and there by his head was a cake baked on coals, and a jar of water. 2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, ( B)“So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.” 3 And when he saw that, he arose and ran for his life, and went to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.Ĥ But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree. 19 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, also how he had ( A)executed all the prophets with the sword.
