Minister with Extraordinary Power

James 5:16
James 5:17
1 John 3:8
Luke 10:19
Ephesians 6:10-20

- We are looking at the life of Elijah
- It is the secret of a prayerful life
- A simple, short and direct prayer approach
- Ordinary people who are willing to pray extraordinarily ordinary prayers to an Extraordinary God

(1) Elijah cry out for God's compassion on lives (1 Kings 17:20-21)
A. he was subjected to same sanctions
B. he was compelled into the same hardships

(2) Elijah contend for God's glory : He Vindicates! (1 Kings 18:36-38)
A. The real source of blessings : Baal or Yahweh? (1 Kings 17:1)
B. The real source of conflicts : physical or spiritual?
- the battle is real but the victory is sure
- Jesus wins! satan loses!

(3) Elijah care for God's honour : He Provides (1 Kings 19:14-18)
A. The conditions of the lost
B. The crisis of pre-exilic Israel : Double-Minded (1 Kings 18)
C. The comfort of the Lord
- His Supernatural Provision
- His Supernatural Presence

We are there to reach out to raise dead dreams, dead plans, dead life. We have been saved by Grace.
