  1. REVIVE

  2. (1Ki 17:17-24) And it came to pass after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him. And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? art thou come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son? And he said unto her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed. And he cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son? And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again. And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived. And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him unto his mother: and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth. And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou art a man of God, and that the word of the LORD in thy mouth is truth.

  3. (Jas 5:17) Elias 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.

  4. The Disappointment in the Lord.

  5. (1Ki 17:17) And it came to pass after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him.

  6. (Hab 1:2) O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save! (Hab 1:3) Why dost thou shew me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention.

  7. The Disappointment in the Lord. • The Dejection of the circumstances.

  8. (1Ki 17:18) And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? art thou come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son?

  9. Her lack of COMPREHENSION

  10. For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

  11. She lacks COMPREHENSION • She doubts her CONNECTION with God

  12. (Joh9:1-3) And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

  13. The Disappointment in the Lord. • The Dejection of the circumstances. • The Decision to go the Lord

  14. (1Ki 17:19-22) And he said unto her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed. And he cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again. And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.

  15. He chooses not to Combat with her .

  16. (Pro 15:1) A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. (Jas 3:5-6) Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.

  17. He chooses not to COMBAT with her. • He decides to CONFIDE in the Lord

  18. (Mat 6:33) But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

  19. The Disappointment in the Lord. • The Dejection of the circumstances. • The Decision to go the Lord • The Drive behind the trials

  20. (1Ki 17:23-24) And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him unto his mother: and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth. And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou art a man of God, and that the word of the LORD in thy mouth is truth.

  21. Is to CONSTRUCT your faith.

  22. (Rom 10:17) So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. (Rom 1:17) For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

  23. (Heb 11:1) Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Heb 11:6) But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

  24. Is to CONSTRUCT your faith. • Is to CONVEY his Glory

  25. (Rom 11:36) For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

  26. (Rev 4:9-11) And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

  27. (Job 23:10) But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. (Isa 48:10) Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
