January 20, 2025, 1 Kings 20:13-25 13  And behold, a prophet came near to Ahab king of Israel and said, “Thus says the  Lord , Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, I will give it into your hand this day, and you shall know that I am the  Lord .”  14  And Ahab said, “By whom?” He said, “Thus says the  Lord , By the servants of the governors of the districts.” Then he said, “Who shall begin the battle?” He answered, “You.”  15  Then he mustered the servants of the governors of the districts, and they were 232. And after them he mustered all the people of Israel, seven thousand. 16  And they went out at noon, while Ben-hadad was drinking himself drunk in the booths, he and the thirty-two kings who helped him.  17  The servants of the governors of the districts went out first. And Ben-hadad sent out scouts, and they reported to him, “Men are coming out from Samaria.”  18  He said, “If they have co...

January 19, 2025, 1 Kings 20:1-12 20  Ben-hadad the king of Syria gathered all his army together. Thirty-two kings were with him, and horses and chariots. And he went up and closed in on Samaria and fought against it.  2  And he sent messengers into the city to Ahab king of Israel and said to him, “Thus says Ben-hadad:  3  ‘Your silver and your gold are mine; your best wives and children also are mine.’”  4  And the king of Israel answered, “As you say, my lord, O king, I am yours, and all that I have.”  5  The messengers came again and said, “Thus says Ben-hadad: ‘I sent to you, saying, “Deliver to me your silver and your gold, your wives and your children.”  6  Nevertheless I will send my servants to you tomorrow about this time, and they shall search your house and the houses of your servants and lay hands on whatever pleases you and take it away.’” 7  Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the l...

January 18, 2025, 1 Kings 19:19-21

January 18, 2025, 1 Kings 19:19-21 19  So he departed from there and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen in front of him, and he was with the twelfth. Elijah passed by him and cast his cloak upon him.  20  And he left the oxen and ran after Elijah and said, “Let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you.” And he said to him, “Go back again, for what have I done to you?”  21  And he returned from following him and took the yoke of oxen and sacrificed them and boiled their flesh with the yokes of the oxen and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he arose and went after Elijah and assisted him. This is an interesting passage. Elijah comes upon Elisha. He places his cloak upon Elisha. Elisha then leaves his oxen and runs after Elijah. He goes back and tells his parents goodbye, he sacrificed his only source of income and gave it to the people. Elisha is all in! Are we always all in when ...

January 17, 2025, 1 Kings 19:9-18 9  There he came to a cave and lodged in it. And behold, the word of the  Lord  came to him, and he said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”  10  He said, “I have been very jealous for the  Lord , the God of hosts. For the people of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword, and I, even I only, am left, and they seek my life, to take it away.”  11  And he said, “Go out and stand on the mount before the  Lord .” And behold, the  Lord  passed by, and a great and strong wind tore the mountains and broke in pieces the rocks 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 the sound...

January 16, 2025, 1 Kings 19:1-8 19  Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.  2  Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “So may the gods do to me and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by this time tomorrow.”  3  Then he was afraid, and he arose and ran for his life and came to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there. 4  But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness and came and sat down under a broom tree. And he asked that he might die, saying, “It is enough; now, O  Lord , take away my life, for I am no better than my fathers.”  5  And he lay down and slept under a broom tree. And behold, an angel touched him and said to him, “Arise and eat.”  6  And he looked, and behold, there was at his head a cake baked on hot stones and a jar of water. And he ate and drank and lay down aga...

January 15, 2025, 1 Kings 18:41-46 41  And Elijah said to Ahab, “Go up, eat and drink, for there is a sound of the rushing of rain.”  42  So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Mount Carmel. And he bowed himself down on the earth and put his face between his knees.  43  And he said to his servant, “Go up now, look toward the sea.” And he went up and looked and said, “There is nothing.” And he said, “Go again,” seven times.  44  And at the seventh time he said, “Behold, a little cloud like a man's hand is rising from the sea.” And he said, “Go up, say to Ahab, ‘Prepare your chariot and go down, lest the rain stop you.’”  45  And in a little while the heavens grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode and went to Jezreel.  46  And the hand of the  Lord  was on Elijah, and he gathered up his garment and ran before Ahab to the entrance of...

January 14, 2025, 1 Kings 18:20-40 20  So Ahab sent to all the people of Israel and gathered the prophets together at Mount Carmel.  21  And Elijah came near to all the people and said, “How long will you go limping between two different opinions? If the  Lord  is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.” And the people did not answer him a word.  22  Then Elijah said to the people, “I, even I only, am left a prophet of the  Lord , but Baal's prophets are 450 men.  23  Let two bulls be given to us, and let them choose one bull for themselves and cut it in pieces and lay it on the wood, but put no fire to it. And I will prepare the other bull and lay it on the wood and put no fire to it.  24  And you call upon the name of your god, and I will call upon the name of the  Lord , and the God who answers by fire, he is God.” And all the people answered, “It is well spoken.”  25  Then El...
