TOPIC: MOUNT CAMEL EXPERIENCE 1
And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follows him. And the people answered him not a word.
22.Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men. 23. Let them, therefore, give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under:24.And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.25.And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under. And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.27.And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked. 28.And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them.29.And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded.30.And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down.31.And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the LORD came, saying, Israel shall be thy name:32.And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.33.And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood.34.And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time. 35.And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water. 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. 38.Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. 39.And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God.40.And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there. 1 kings 18:21-40
It was an encounter between the truth and lies. Elijah represented the truth and the prophets of Ball and Asherah represented lies and deceit. The truth represents power. You need the power to know what has been happening around you spiritually. You need the power to know what the enemy has been doing against you on every first day of the month. You need the power to stop the operation of darkness by telling them no way.
The truth is the power of boldness that makes you say things when you should say them, the power to counter words. Words are not just mere speakings so don’t allow anybody to say things against you directly and you keep quiet and say when I get home, I know what to do.
It was an encounter between the power of restoration and the force of desolation. The Lord makes desolate the powers of the enemy.
Whereas Edom saith, we are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, they shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, the border of wickedness, and the people against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever Mal. 1: 4
Everything the devil says is a lie. Poverty is a liar, it has come to tell you that God is not interested in your wellbeing, sickness is a liar, it has come to tell you that God didn’t create you well. Your body is God’s house so no act of darkness shall dwell in you.
It is high time invisible movement in your house stopped because they are all liars, and everything that does not glorify God is not permitted to dwell in you.
MEDITATION: The word of God in me has made me relevant in life as a problem solver.
PRAYER:
1. Lord, help me to be a blessing to my generation in Jesus name.
2. Lord, let your glory upon my life draw people to your kingdom in Jesus name.
