Soul Care: “Praying Until the Rain Comes”

Soul Care: “Praying Until the Rain Comes”

This Sunday, we continue our series Soul Care with the message “Waiting for Rain” based on 1 Kings 18:41–46. Even after God answers with fire on Mount Carmel, the drought continues. Israel has witnessed God’s power, yet the rain has still not come. Elijah’s story reminds us that spiritual breakthrough and visible change do not always happen at the same time.

Soul Care: “When Faith Must Stand Alone”

We continue our series Soul Care with the message “A Divided Heart” based on 1 Kings 18:20–39. Mount Carmel is one of the most dramatic scenes in Elijah’s story, but beneath the fire from heaven lies a deeper spiritual issue: divided loyalty. Elijah confronts a people trying to live between two competing allegiances, worshiping the Lord while also accommodating the values surrounding them.

Soul Care: “Hope When Life Falls Apart”

We continue our series Soul Care with the message “Faith in the Valley of Grief” based on 1 Kings 17:17–24. This passage interrupts the miracle story we might expect. After God’s dramatic provision through the widow’s flour and oil, tragedy still enters the household. The widow’s son becomes ill and dies, forcing both Elijah and the widow to wrestle honestly with grief, confusion, and questions about God’s presence.

Soul Care: “Trusting God One Day at a Time”

We continue our series focusing on Soul Care with the message “Trusting God One Day at a Time.” Before you read further, ponder what actually nourishes your soul – especially when you are weary or hurried or spiritually dry – and what ‘drains’ your soul.

Soul Care - “When the Soul Runs Dry”

We begin our series Soul Care with the message “When the Soul Runs Dry” based on 1 Kings 17:1–7. The opening chapters of Elijah’s story unfold during one of the darkest spiritual seasons in Israel’s history. Under Ahab and Jezebel’s leadership, the covenant relationship between God and Israel had become fractured by idolatry, fear, and spiritual compromise. The drought Elijah announces is not merely a weather crisis; it reflects a deeper spiritual dryness within the nation itself.
