Sunday, August 13 – Scripture: 1 Kings 19:15-18
15 Then the Lord said to him, “Go, return on your way to the wilderness of Damascus; when you arrive, you shall anoint Hazael as king over Aram.
16 Also you shall anoint Jehu son of Nimshi as king over Israel, and you shall anoint Elisha son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah as prophet in your place.
17 Whoever escapes from the sword of Hazael, Jehu shall kill, and whoever escapes from the sword of Jehu, Elisha shall kill.
18 Yet I will leave seven thousand in Israel, all the knees that have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth that has not kissed him.”
Prayer Focus: What does God say when Elijah is scared and alone? God says, “you are not alone.” God reassures Elijah that there are 7,000 still in Israel who stand with Elijah in his faithfulness to God. He gives Elijah instructions on what to do. Sometimes we all need to know the next step to take. Pray today that we might be reassured that we are never alone, God is with us, and showing us the next best step.
