Good Study,  the books of Daniel, Revelation, The books of Kings.. the book of Joel how the end will be.
 
Malachi 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
  • Did it said, maybe Elijah will come?
  • God's word said, I WILL send Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
  • If the people had received the word of God, Jesus, John the Baptist would have been as Elijah.
  • Matthew 17:11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elijah truly shall first come, and restore all things.
    12 But I say unto you, That Elijah is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
  • Elijah will come = Before the Lord day, the last days.
  • Matthew 11:11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: not withstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
    12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
    13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
    14 And if ye will receive it, this is Elijah, which was for to come.
  • IF YE WILL RECEIVE IT, THIS IS Elijah, which was for to come
  • Did the people receive (the word of God, Jesus) The Fulfillment of Elijah?
  • No
  • They beheaded John  the Baptist
  • They crucified Jesus, Our Lord
  • 2 Kings 2:1 Elijah never died, but was taken by the Lord into heaven.
  • Luke 1:17 John the Baptist, was born of woman 6 months prior to Jesus Christ's birth.
  • Could Elijah come 6 months before Christ return at the 7th trumpet?
  • Or  7 days before Satan's tribulation?
  • His last supper, the wine representing His blood, would have been (as it will yet be) as "the blood of the (New) Covenant" as foretold in Jeremiah 31:31-34.
  • Jeremiah 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
    32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the Lord:
    33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
    34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord; for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
  • Hebrews 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
    9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
    10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
    11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
    12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
    13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
  • Luke 1:17 John the Baptist, was born of woman 6 months prior to Jesus Christ's birth.
  • Could Elijah come 6 months before Christ return at the 7th trump?
  • Malachi 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
    6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
The 7th kingdom and the 8th king is Satan's one world order (Rev 17)
 
Rev 17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
 
One hour = 5 months Rev 9
 
Revelation 13:1 I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast  rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the names of blasphemy.
  • Beast = kingdoms, leaders, kings
  • Daniel 7:17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.
  • Waters in the book of Revelation refers to people and nations, (Revelation 17:15)
  • Horn always symbolic to power the ten kings of the earth and 10 crowns, they are supernatural.
  • Revelation 17:12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast (Satan's one world order)
  • Heads are nations and domination, Revelation 17:9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom.
  • Nations that are spoken of in Daniel 2 & 7
  • The woman Jezebel, The "great city is Babylon, or state of confusion  has setup.
1st beast represents the one world political government
 
Revelation 13:1 I stood upon the sand of the people, and saw a one world order rise up out of the people, having 7 dominations (G7) and 10 rulers of the earth (parts of G20) and almost brings in one world order.

2nd beast represents Satan's one world religious government

7th kingdom, 5th trump = Upon Satan's angels and 10 Kings that setup in Jerusalem. Upon Satan's one world order these setup confusion, lies. Satan and his angels will deceived all that have not study God's Word.

One world order = The woman Jezebel, The "great city is Babylon, or state of confusion has setup.

Remember there are four beast of the last days
 
Daniel 7:17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.
 
Revelation 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
 
The four world powers in the last days, Daniel 2 and  7. Satan's one world order
 
(1) 7th kingdom, Satan's one world order, Satan's 10 kings that setup in Jerusalem, they give the kingdom over to Satan, the 8th king (Rev 17:11)
(2) The Lion, They are not of the tribe of Judah (The Christians Nations) but they say: we are Jews, and are not, but are of the synagogue of Satan. False pastors also. They attack you as a lion if you go again them. Watch most of the media. (Dan 7)
(3) The Bear, Russia along with China and the kings of the east (Dan 7)
(4) The Leopard, Satan's seed, Cain's sons, 7th kingdom, ten rulers of the earth (parts of G20), Satan's angels, all are Jezebel puppets to Satan and will united in one place, Jerusalem. (Dan 7)
 
We have all the world powers, and all dominion in the earth, gathered up and concentrated in this one place, Jerusalem. We see them in their superhuman form, as we see them in their human or mortal form in Daniel.
 
They use the four hidden political dynasties to control the world. Education, Religion, Financial and the Government. They use most of the media to bring in one world order.
 
Malachi 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
  • Did it said, maybe Elijah will come?
  • There are no ifs or buts in Our Father's statement.
  • It's a promise.
  • God's word said, I WILL send Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
  • If the people had received (Jesus and the word of God), John the Baptist would have been as Elijah.
  • Matthew 11:14 And if ye will receive it, this is Elijah, which was for to come.
  • IF YE WILL RECEIVE IT, THIS IS Elijah, which was for to come
  • Did the people receive Jesus or the word of God?
  • The Fulfillment of Elijah, No.
  • All would have been fulfilled then, had the nation repented.
  • They beheaded John  the Baptist:
  • They crucified Jesus, Our Lord
6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
  • As Satan and his angels have a 5 month rule before that great and dreadful day and drawing from the "ensample" of John who came (in the spirit of Elijah) 6 months before Christ, it seems that Elijah could come to the elect 6 months before Christ's second advent., or 1 month before Satan's appearance to mankind.
  • What a gracious Father we have.
  • Elijah shall instruct God's elect
Elijah wrought eight miracles and Elisha sixteen,
 
2 Kings 2:15 And when the sons of the prophets which were to view at Jericho saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.
  • The prophets saw Elijah go up into heaven by a whirlwind,
  • The prophets said, The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha.
  • Notice they witness Elijah go up into heaven by a whirlwind,
  • Doth Rest = hath rested
  • Rest in = "double portion" from God = The Lord is our Rest
  • Seen in the fact that Elijah wrought eight miracles and Elisha sixteen, and all were parables in action.
  • Elijah's eight Miracles 1 Kings and 2 Kings

1 Kings 17:1 And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.
  • Elijah = My God (El) is God
  • Elijah, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead
  • Tishbite means Sojourners
  • Luke 4:25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;
    26 But unto none of them was Elijah sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.
  • James 5:17 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.
    18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.
  • Here's a type = the two witnesses in last days
  • Revelation 11:2 = Forty two months = 3 1/2 years, Revelation 9 God shortened time to 5 months 
  • Revelation 11:3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
  • My two witnesses, They shall prophesy what? The word of God
  • The forty and two months is the same as three and one half years
  • Forty two months = 3 1/2 years, Revelation 9 God shortened the time to 5 months
  • God's prophesy in days = The solar calendar has about ten more days in a year, most people believe the two witnesses will come about 5-30 days before Satan tribulation.
  • Matthew 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
  • There come a time when it will be too late to study God's word
  • 11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
    12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
  • God told the people He would give them rain If they done things His ways
  • Lev 26:3 If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;
  • 4 Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
  • These years (not three years). No definite period stated. "Years" is plural, not dual.
  • In Luke 4:25 and James 5:17 = "three years and six months".
  • Rain = represents the word of God
  • Proverbs 16:15 In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.
    16 How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!
    17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.
2 And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,

3 Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
  • Jordan, On the east side
4 And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
  • I have commanded the ravens, All things possible when He speaks.
  • Almighty power is a better and easier explanation than all rationalistic inventions.
  • There Nowhere else, note the special lesson.
  • Anywhere but in God's appointed place he would have perished.
  • I have commanded. Elijah miraculously fed three times:
  • (1) by ravens (1 Kings 17:6)
  • (2) by a widow (1 Kings 17:9)
  • (3) by an angel (1 Kings 19:5,6).
5 So he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.

6 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.
  • Elijah fed by the raven
  • The ravens brought him bread
7 And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.

8 And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,

9 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.
  • Elijah fed by the Widow
  • Zarephath means the Sarepta of Luke 4:26
10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
  • Elijah asking for water
  • Widow Woman symbolic to Israel
  • There gathering of sticks = Ezekiel 37 the gathering of all tribes
11 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.
  • First Elijah asked for water, and second he asked for bread
12 And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.
  • She was saying, this is all we have left to eat
13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.
  • Elijah telling her to have faith
14 For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.
  • Notice Elijah said, when the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth
15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.
  • The Lord send Elijah to this woman because of her faith
  • Luke 4:25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;
    26 But unto none of them was Elijah sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.
16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.
 
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.
  • Breath = spirit = he died = he was spiritual dead
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?
 
19 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.
  • John 9:3 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
    2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
    3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made in him.
    4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
    5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
20 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?
  • Elijah cried unto the LORD
21 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.
 
22 And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
  • This is showing us here, Elijah was a type of Jesus
23 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.
  • Liveth = The result of life's being given, making the child "a living soul"
  • Genesis 2:7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
24 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.
  •  The woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou art a man of God
1 Kings 18:1 And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the LORD came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, shew thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth.
  • God told Elijah to go unto Ahab and I will send rain upon the earth
  • Third year = the third or last full year toward the end of the three and a half years.
  • Notice end of three and half years
2 And Elijah went to shew himself unto Ahab. And there was a sore famine in Samaria.
  • The famine today is hearing the word of God
  • Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:
  • Famine = One of the thirteen famines mentioned
3 And Ahab called Obadiah, which was the governor of his house. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly):
  • Obadiah feared the LORD greatly
  • Obadiah = Servant of The Lord
4 For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the LORD, that Obadiah took an hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.
  • Jezebel cut off the prophets of the LORD
  • Obadiah took an hundred prophets, and hid fifty men in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.
  • Here we see God's law took over civil laws
  • The first record of using the civil power against the true religion (and by a woman)
5 And Ahab said unto Obadiah, Go into the land, unto all fountains of water, and unto all brooks: peradventure we may find grass to save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts.
  • Ahab looking all over for water
  • Why didn't he call on God to help them?
6 So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.

7 And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Art thou that my lord Elijah?

8 And he answered him, I am: go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here.

9 And he said, What have I sinned, that thou wouldest deliver thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to slay me?

10 As the LORD thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found thee not.

11 And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here.

12 And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am gone from thee, that the Spirit of the LORD shall carry thee whither I know not; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot find thee, he shall slay me: but I thy servant fear the LORD from my youth.

13 Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel slew the prophets of the LORD, how I hid an hundred men of the LORD's prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water?
  • Jezebel slew the prophets
  • Obadiah fed them with bread and water
14 And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here: and he shall slay me.

15 And Elijah said, As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will surely shew myself unto him to day.
  • Verse 1 This is what God told Elijah to do.
  • 1 Kings 18:1 And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the LORD came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, shew thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth.
16 So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him: and Ahab went to meet Elijah.
  • It's been 3 1/2 years now there's not been any rain.
 17 And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel?
  • Ahab wasn't doing any things God's way and the people followed Ahab
18 And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and thou hast followed Baalim.
 
19 Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel's table.
  • Jezebel has Baal prophets four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred
  • Mount Carmel = Eighteen miles from Jezreel; sixteen miles from the sea.
  • The Kishon below, but now dry. At the foot a perennial spring, with a roofed reservoir, eight feet deep. Carmel is still called "Mar-Elias"
  • Exodus 34:13 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:
    14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:
20 So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together unto mount Carmel.

21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.
  • This is a type of the end times. Just like today, most people don't know what's in the Bible, because they follow the ways of the world.
  • Elijah asking the people to choose: Follow the LORD to be their God, and follow him: But if Baal, then follow baal.
  • And the people answered him not a word.
  • What are the trumpets?
  • You need to know what 1/3 means?
  • It's the two opinions Elijah talking about.
  • Revelation 12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
  • What does this word drew and tail mean in Revelation 12:4?
  • Drew # 4951 Greek word - NT:138; to trail
  • Tail is from Trail NT:138 Greek; choose. NT:138; to make a choice
  • What did Elijah say, How long halt ye between two opinions?
  • It's up to you follow God or follow Satan
22 Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men.
  • Elijah said unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the LORD
  • Here's another type: God's very elect 7,000 = against the whole world
  • Roman 11:4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
  • God's elect will be deliver up, those 7,000 that stood against Satan in the first world age
  • Matthew 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
  • Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
  • Satan will kill the two witnesses (Revelation 11)
23 Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under:
 
24 And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.
  • Elijah telling them call on your gods
  • And I'll call on the name of the Lord: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God.
  • Heb 12:29 For our God is a consuming fire.
  • God fire can bring comfort or God fire can destroy all evil things
25 And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under.
  • Elijah said, call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under.
26 And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.
  • What did they do?
  • O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered.
27 And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.
  • Elijah mocked them, telling them cry aloud to your gods
  • Pursuing = OT:7873 (into a private place)
  • Elijah saying, maybe your gods are gone on potty break
28 And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them.
  • Why would they cut themselves?
  • The truth wasn't in them
29 And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded.
  • The people had been there since early morning watching, notice nothing happen
  • There was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded
30 And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down.
  • Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me.
  • Elijah was saying = their gods aren't coming

  • Exodus 24:4 And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
32 And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.
 
33 And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood.
  • Elijah said wet it down real good, fill four barrels with water
34 And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time.
  • Elijah said, fill four barrels with water, plus the third time with total of 12 barrels of water
  • What's our water? Christ = the living water
35 And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water.

36 And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word.
  • Why did Elijah do all this?
  • What is the reason for all of this?
  • To let it be known this day that there is a God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word.
  • To let the people know there is only one God, Elijah is God's servant, and Elijah obey God.
  • Who told Elijah to do this?
  • God
  • Verse 1 And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the LORD came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, shew thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth.
  • We are seeing all things come to pass very fast. Are you a watchmen or you following the world? Which is Satan ways. 4th trump is to make a choice, follow God or follow satan)
37 Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again.
  • This is the reason why Elijah doing this
  • God loves All of His children, God wants you to follow Him
38 Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
  • Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice
39 And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God.
  • God did  turn the people hearts back to the Lord, How?
  • God used Elijah
  • In the end times God's elect has sealed the 144,000 (Revelation 7)
  • Meaning you have share the word with them, but they don't believe you, until you are delivered up.
  • What happen when God's elect is delivered up? (Mark 13)
  • God speaks through them, Why?
  • Mark 13:10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.
  • Once God's elect are delivered up and God speaks through them, the 144,000 will know they have worshipped Satan, just as you have read this book of Kings.
  • This is the time the 144,000 will pray for the mountains to fall on them, because of their shame.
  • Malachi 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
    6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
  • We know from this chapter Elijah will be guiding God Elect.
  • Who fed the prophets?

  • Obadiah = Servant of God
  • What is this water?

  • John 7:37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
    38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
    Revelation 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
  • What's the fire?
  • Heb 12:29 For our God is a consuming fire.
  • God fire can bring comfort or God fire can destroy all evil things
  • What happen at the 4th vial?
  • Revelation 16:8 The truth and light pouring from the witnesses, teaching, scorching and crushing Satan.
  • The two witnesses have special power here, God is a consuming fire. They have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over all the people, and to smite the earth with all plagues.
  • The power of the oil, The Holy Spirit working through the two witnesses.
  • Revelation 16:9 the word Heat = truth
  • The truth is being poured out.
  • What happen on Pentecost day?
  • Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
    2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
    3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
    4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
    5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.
    6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.
  • If you can't see this is a type of the time God's elect will be delivered up, keep it in mind when it happen.
  • Revelation 20 God's elect will be priest in the millennium, and they will teach all the truth, God will be there and people will see Him Face to Face.
40 And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there.
  • God told them to kill the the prophets of Baal = the false prophets
  • Deut 13:5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the Lord your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the Lord thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.
  • What happens to Satan's false prophets = 7th vial God pours out His wrath
  • Revelation 11:14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
    15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
  • Revelation 16:17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.
  • 7th vial poured out - this is also the three woe to earth - The Cup of Wrath
  • This cup of wrath is poured out on those that followed Satan and worshipped Satan
  • 18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.
    19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
41 And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain.
  • It's been about 3 1/2 years since it rain
  • How long was Satan's rain = tribulation?
  • Revelation 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
  • The two witnesses have the same time, a thousand two hundred and threescore day
  • 3 1/2 years = God has short this time to five months
  • Revelation 9:4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
    5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.
  • Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
    23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
    24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
    25 Behold, I have told you before.
  • Who are they in Revelation 9:4?
  • Satan's false prophets = The book of Joel = 4th stage locusts (men) = Fallen angels supernatural
  • 2 Corinthians 11:13-14 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
  • What did Jesus say?
  • Matthew 24:25 Behold, I have told you before.
  • You need to search out God's word for the truth, you can't follow the world and think your going to get rewards at His coming.
  • 1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
    10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
    11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
42 So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees,
 
43 And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times.
  • He said, There wasn't one cloud in the sky, Elijah told him to look seven times
  • The number seven means: spiritual completion, perfection, perfect spiritual order carried out with all spiritual power and significance. both spirit and order. perfection of spiritual truth, as seen by multiple of 7, but by the perfection of divine order.
44 And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and get thee down, that the rain stop thee not.
  • Elijah said, it going to rain go and get the chariot and go before your chariot gets stuck in the mud.
45 And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.
 
46 And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.
The ten tribes had left Israel at the time, and having left the old temple, they had all turned to idolatry. Just as today. They're believing the Kenites people are the true sons of Israel, and we could say much the same thing Elijah said; but Elijah forgot the divine promise to the seed.
 
1 Kings 19:1 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.
  • You have to ask, who is King?
2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time.
 
3 And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beer-sheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there.
  • Elijah didn't asked God, he just went to Judah
  • God told him to go to Jerusalem
  • He didn't asked God what to do, when Jezebel came at him
  • This is the time we need to ask God what to do.
4 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.
  • Elijah requested for himself that he might die
  • Elijah, being weak now he is not doing as God told him to do.
  • Here we see a type of today.
  • People don't want to know what God's word says, they like living as the world.
  • Until something goes wrong, then they want to blame God for all their troubles.
  • I can see why Elijah wanted to give us on Israel, watch the news.
5 And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.
  • An angel touched him and said, arise and eat
  • I have commanded. Elijah miraculously fed three times:
  • (1) by ravens (1 Kings 17:6)
  • (2) by a widow (1 Kings 17:9)
  • (3) by an angel (1 Kings 19:5,6)
6 And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.
  • Cake baken, and water, Elijah did eat and laid down again
  • Elijah was fed three times, by an angel
7 And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.
  • The angel the second time told Elijah to eat
8 And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.
  • Forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.
  • Forth = probation
  • Horeb = about 180 miles
9 And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?
  • The Lord talking to Elijah, What doest thou here, Elijah?
10 And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.
  • The children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant
  • Thrown down thine altars
  • Slain thy prophets with the sword
  • I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away
  • There's 7,000 of God's very elect
  • Romans 11:4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
11 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:

12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

13 And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?
  • Wrapped = As Moss at the bush
  • Verse 12  The LORD = a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?
14 And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.

15 And the LORD said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when thou comest, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria:
  • The Lord told Elijah go the way I told you to go.
16 And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel: and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room.
  • Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel
  • Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room
  • Son of Nimshi =  grandson or descendant (2 Kings 9:2).
  • Elisha = El = my GOD (is) salvation.
  • 2 Kings 9:2 And when thou comest thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise up from among his brethren, and carry him to an inner chamber;
17 And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.

18 Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.
  • Kissed = worshipping
  • Seven thousand,  which have not bowed unto Baal = unto Satan
  • These are God's elect that will stand for God in the last days, they will be deliver up, why?
  • God will speak through them, bringing the true word of God to All nations and people, then the end will come.
  • Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
  • Romans 11:4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
19 So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth: and Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him.
  • Twelve yoke of oxen = pair would be 24
20 And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And he said unto him, Go back again: for what have I done to thee?

21 And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him.
 
2 Kings 2:1And it came to pass, when the Lord would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.

3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elijah talking with him.

4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.

7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.

9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.

Jeremiah 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:

32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the Lord:

33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord; for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
 
Hebrews 8:8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:

9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.

13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
