It is always divine >judgment. From the beginning of his reign, Ahab, who is king when Elijah >begins his ministry, violates the Lord's name. He encourages idolatry >and the worship of Baal, a pagan god. He "did evil in the sight of the >Lord, more than all who were before him" (1 Kings 16:30). >Elijah's name means "Jehovah is my strength," and the Lord sets about to >prove the significance of Elijah's name as He brings judgment on Israel >and destroys the worshipers of Baal. > >PRAYER >• The Lord longs to bless us. Offer Him your praise for His goodness and >mercy: >Tremble before Him, all the earth. >The world also is firmly established, >It shall not be moved. >Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; >And let them say among the nations, >"The Lord reigns." . . . >Oh, give thanks to the Lord for He is good! For His mercy endures >forever. . . . >Blessed be the Lord God of Israel From everlasting to everlasting! >(1 Chronicles 16:30-31, 34, 36). > >• Pray this confession to the Lord as you seek to keep your life free >from sin: >Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in >obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, >and to heed than the fat of rams (1 Samuel 15:22). > >• Confess any sins that the Holy Spirit brings to your mind. Now pray >this affirmation to the Lord: >There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, >who do not walk according to the >flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the >Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and >death (Romans 8:1-2). > >• As you make your requests known to the Lord, include: >• the renewing of your mind, >• the needs of your extended family, >• your activities for the day. > >• Offer this closing prayer to the Lord: >Bless the Lord, all you His hosts, >You ministers of His, who do His pleasure. Bless the Lord, all His >works, >In all places of His dominion. >Bless the Lord, O my soul! >(Psalm 103:21-22). > > > >Quiet Walk is published by Walk Thru the Bible Ministries, Inc. in >Atlanta, GA.
