Every heart worships something. The question isn’t if we worship – it’s what or who we worship. As we continue our study of 1 Kings 18, we arrive at the dramatic showdown on Mount Carmel, where Elijah stands alone against hundreds of prophets of Baal. Israel had not completely rejected the Lord; they were trying to worship Him while also pursuing the idols that promised security, success, and satisfaction. Through this unforgettable account, we’ll see that every idol ultimately leaves us empty, while wholehearted devotion to God brings life. Before God’s fire fell, Elijah first repaired the altar – a powerful reminder that renewal begins with repentance and restored worship. Join us as we discover what it means to stop wavering, trust God’s faithfulness, and seek His glory above all else.
“When all the people saw this, they fell prostrate and cried, “The Lord—he is God! The Lord—he is God!”
1 Kings 18:39
