Elijah (Week One)
Read 1 Kings 17:1-6. Elijah is called by God to speak prophetically to Israel’s evil king, Ahab.
1. What risks was Elijah taking by delivering this message to Ahab?
2. Where does Elijah gain boldness? Why was he confident that God would do what he said he would do? (See Exodus 16:12)
3. Read 1 Kings 17:7-8. How did Elijah know it was time to move on?
Read 1 Kings 17:9-24.
4. What was Elijah’s reputation with the widow? How did her understanding grow?
5. What kind of miracles did Elijah witness? Why did God perform those miracles?
6. James 5:17 says that Elijah “was a man just like us.” Why does James write this? What is he motivating us to do or be?
7. Share a time when you were bold in sharing Christ is someone. What made is difficult? What makes us timid about speaking up for Christ?
8. How can we have the confidence in God’s Word that Elijah had?
