BIBLE READING: 1 Kings 18:36-37
36 And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word.
37 Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again.
MESSAGE:
Elijah was a mighty prophet of God who challenged 450 prophets of Baal to a contest to prove God’s supremacy. At that time, the lsraelites engaged in the worship of Baal, so Elijah sought an avenue to turn the people’s hearts back to the real God who delivered their forefathers from bondage in Egypt.
When Elijah prayed on the day of the contest, God sent down fire from heaven to consume his sacrifice. The prophets of Baal were dumbfounded because they had spent hours calling on their god to send fire to no avail. This event proved God’s supremacy over Baal and all other gods.
Similarly, God can use you to prove to unbelievers and difficult people that He is the Almighty. For example, if you have a difficult teacher who says you will never have an ‘A’ in his or her subject, do not be afraid; go to your hostel or room and cry to God to prove Himself in your situation. You will be surprised that after writing the exam, your answers will be so excellent that the teacher will have no choice but to give you an A! My dear child, there is no situation or circumstance that God cannot solve through prayers.
PRAYER POINT:
Father, please prove Your might in my life and family, in Jesus’ name.

Over Yonder He The Victors Palm Shall Bear,
And A Robe Of White, And Golden Crown Shall Wear. Refrain
