Get up, eat and drink as long is your walk

And the angel of the Lord came a second time and touched him, and said, Arise and eat, because you will be very long way. I Rs 19.7

Who ever heard of the prophet Elijah? One of the largest and most powerful prophets that God raised in the world. This mysterious man appeared in the most turbulent period in the history of Israel. The prophets of Jehovah were killed, the remains Mirko with evil people and limp between two opinions, it was there that God raised up Elijah in response to this national idolatry. Jezebel, who was married to Ahab, introduced through his prophets employed by her to worship the demon-god Baal and his wife Asherah mythical. These Canaanite gods now should be worshiped by all the people that Jehovah himself with a strong arm freed from Egyptian slavery. Heresy and apostasy dotted the northern kingdom and no one had stood up to announce the truth, even afraid of the consequences. It was at that time that God raised suddenly one of the most powerful prophets of the Old Testament.

Does this period was not similar to ours? When we now see many evangelicals do not worship the pictures like Baal, but the people and even ministries? Believers who die by their leaders, preachers and singers. Believers who faithfully follow these "stars gosp" are not acting the same way as Israel in the days of Elijah? Did not we see the doctrine of Jezebel going quietly in our churches? Jezebel is in our midst and we are not realizing that their poison is spreading more than the new influenza spreads around the world. And many men of God and entire ministries are being destroyed by pride, greed and arrogance.

It is at this very moment that God is raising up their "Elijah"

When Satan was thinking that would kill suffocated the people of God through the mud of idolatry, God responds to him with the prophet of fire! Elias appears to challenge Ahab and the prophets of Baal by the power of the Word of God. God is raising up men who will challenge the foundations of sin in evangelical circles. There is a Mount Caramel expecting these false "men of God" and their doctrines of demons to show what really is the power of God. On Mount Moriah, God will provide, on Mount Caramel will manifest!

The first attitude was to show Elijah to King Ahab that rain and the weather was not in control of Baal, or agriculture and fertility were in the power of Asherah. When Elijah prophesies that it will rain on the earth according to his own word, he gives a sharp blow this couple of demons! The world needs such men, who fear only God and to his word. We are tired of hearing beautiful words when many flock to hell in our own churches.

Jezebel was so wicked, brazen and bold in malignancy so far as to build a temple to the god Baal demon. Ahab was certainly the most idolatrous king who occupied the throne of Israel, only joined in the wicked and evil men like him.

The challenge was set, the god who made the fire come down from heaven, as God would be put. The prophets of Baal cried and nothing happened. Elijah prayed and fire came down from heaven, consuming the victim, the water and leaving the dry land before. Given this demonstration all the people worshiped God on earth bowing and saying that only Jehovah is God and the rest was negligible false gods. All the prophets of Baal who were present were killed and Elijah went to Ahab and show once again that the control of rain was in the hands of the Lord said to Ahab that it would rain a lot after three years of drought. And so it happened, Elijah and entreated God sent rain that flooded whole place.

After spiritual breakthroughs, always come from hell retaliate

Jezebel to hear from Ahab that Elijah had sent a threat to Elijah, and this fear of dying as the prophets of Baal were killed, fled into the wilderness. Know that before any progress and spiritual growth that you have, the devil is not pleased to rise to it will prevent. So it was with Joshua, when his campaign advanced by the promised land, five kings came together to frustrate him. But as the power of God was able to stop the sun and moon to Joshua triumph in battle, so God will be able to do things unimaginable to grant full and absolute victory in those who fear him.

It is true that the enemy gets up, but it is certain that he will fall! Thus in the life of Jeremiah, he should speak all that God would send, and that many would be angry with him, but God assured him (Jeremiah 1:19) - And they shall fight against you but not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith the Lord, to thee. No matter the price we pay for our faithfulness to God, what matters is that the name of God must be exalted. (Isaiah 54:17) - that is formed against thee shall prosper and every tongue which rises against you in court thou shalt condemn This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.

There are times when the believer wants to escape

Thus the life of Elijah, he fled from Jezebel. Thus the life of Moses, the greatest spiritual leader that Israel already had also wanted to escape the call of God in your life. (Exodus 4:10, 11) - Moses said unto the LORD, O my Lord! I am not an eloquent man, not of yesterday or the day before yesterday, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: for I am slow of speech and tongue. And he said unto the LORD, Who made the man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Not I the LORD? Do not be like Moses, according to his own ability, look at the ability of the God who calls you. Do not look for you, always look for one that you listed! (Hebrews 12:2) - Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the hand of the throne of God. Obedience to God's call will bring great excitement as a consequence of God!

Do not do like Jonah fled to Tarshish when God sent to Nineveh, as God always knows where you go, even when you have not even thought of going. Elijah fled into the desert, but when tired of running away, found a juniper tree, where he rested under its shade. Elias had no idea, but Juniper is a type of tree that is not born in the desert, juniper that was already there even before Elijah to flee there, it was a divine providence in his life.

God provided what you will need during your walk. What is providence? Providence only belongs to God, because He alone knows the things that will happen before they happen. God's providence is the way supernatural or even natural that God uses to preserve the lives of his elect. When Jonah was thrown into the sea, had prepared a fish to take you to the place where God had sent him. This is providence. (Matthew 17:27) - But for those not offend them, go to the lake and throw the hook and take the first fish you catch, and opening his mouth, you will find a stater: take it, and gives a me and thee. A fish with a coin in its mouth when it needed just to pay taxes is welfare.

God will act in extraordinary ways to assist you even when you try to get away from calling it for your life.
