—1 Kings 18:5-18
by: Cheri Appel.
Elijah proclaimed God’s Word and accomplished His works courageously throughout his ministry. Under the evil rule of King Ahab, hundreds of God’s prophets were murdered. When pressed to deliver a message to the king, Obadiah had a long conversation with Elijah about how dangerous that was. Obadiah’s own obedient, godly lifestyle, marked by his protection of 100 prophets from Queen Jezebel’s sword, placed him in an already threatened position. Knowing they could be killed instantly, each man stepped forward faithfully to carry God’s message into the royal court. What will your response look and sound like when God calls you?
