       Prophet of Courage
                      1 Kings 18:5-18
“Is it you, you troubler of Israel?” – 1 Kings 18:17
​
Scriptures reveal Ahab as an insecure, selfish, and angry man. His wife, the Queen Jezebel, encouraged his pride and exploited his fears. “And Ahab made an Asherah. Ahab did more to provoke the Lord, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel who were before him.” (1 Kings 16:33)
The work of the prophet is to be the voice of God. And Ahab did not like to be corrected. So the words of God through Elijah were not appreciated.
Now there was a famine in Israel, no rain or even dew on the ground. After three years, Ahab sent for Elijah. Obadiah carried the message, but when he found Elijah, he was told to return to Ahab to say Elijah would be coming. – Obadiah had done good for the prophets of God in the court of Ahab, but he feared death at the frustration of Ahab when told to wait. – Elijah assured Obadiah of safety in the task, and Ahab went to meet Elijah.
“Is it you, you troubler of Israel?” – Ahab never knew how to approach Elijah. His sins were evident; his wife held sway; the prophets of Baal gave instruction. And Elijah spoke the word of God.
Elijah told Ahab to gather all the prophets of Baal to Mt. Carmel. There a challenge was given and the prophets of Baal were defeated and destroyed. Ahab told Jezebel and a new round of hatred and vengeance against God and Elijah was begun.
It takes courage to speak the word of God to those who are angry in their guilt. Witnessing can be lethal. Our faith is that our witness of Christ will prove deadly to the nature of sin.
