Who was Elijah?

Elijah was a prophet and a man of prayer. Elijah prayed for life to be restored to the widow's son. Do you believe that your prayers can bring the spiritually dead back to life? Elijah prayed and the fire fell and consumed the sacrifice.  James says Elijah was: "…a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months." (James 5:7)

Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and THE LIFE." (John 14:6) "I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living." (Matthew 22:32) "…I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." (John 10:10) "I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live." (John 11:25)

Pray for the sanctifying fires to fall, that the fires will purify our hearts. Do you really believe that prayer will bring the revival rains? Do not underestimate the power of your prayers. Pray, believe and wield the sword. God wants revival. He promises rain, not just a few rain drops or sprinkles. He wills an ingathering which we know to be the latter rain (James 5:7).  Jesus said:  "...and the fields, they are already white to harvest." (John 4:35)

"Blow the trumpet in Zion , sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly: ... Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say,  Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen shall rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God? Then will the Lord be jealous for his land, and pity his people Yea, the Lord will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil… and I will no more make you a reproach, among the heathen... Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the Lord will do great things...  And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh…" (Joel 2:15-28)

"For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy;  I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones." (Isaiah 57:15)

"Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you." (Hosea 10:12) 

"Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips… Then flew one of the seraphim's unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar: and he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged." (Isaiah 6:5-7)

"Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?" (Psalms 85:6)

Elijah prayed: and he received life, fire, and rain!
