The Rain Returns
After demonstrating God’s mighty power, the prophet Elijah turns to prayer, asking God to send rain after a long and devastating drought. At first, there is no sign of rain, but Elijah persists in his prayers. Eventually, his servant sees a tiny cloud forming over the sea. Though small at first, the cloud quickly grows, darkening the sky as strong winds begin to blow. Soon, the heavens open, and a powerful storm sweeps across the land. Rain pours down, drenching the parched earth and bringing an end to the severe drought. Witnessing this incredible display, King Ahab realizes the truth of God’s power and hurries back to his palace as the storm rages on.
Bible Verse: “The sky grew black with clouds, the wind rose, and a heavy rain started falling.” – 1 Kings 18:45
