1. The Build Up
1st Kings 18:17-22
1st Kings 18:17-22
God was slowly taking away what they were dependent on, dismantling their reliance on false strengths.
If you are facing challenges today, pause and actively look for where God is working, but you may have to actively look for it at first.

2. The Battle
1st Kings 18:23-29
1st Kings 18:23-29

3. The Triumph
1st Kings 18:30-40
1st Kings 18:30-40
The false prophets took hours imploring their false god in gruesome ways to answer. Elijah simply prayed.
Just as your physical life requires constant breathing, so too does your spiritual life require constant surrender, receiving of grace, and the constant working of your spiritual muscles.
Are you standing on the mountain or walking through the drought? Write an honest prayer that sums up your feelings, thoughts, and expectations before God at this moment and then go to the altar and pray it!
