King... And his wife Jezebel rebelled against God because.. • Jezebel had all the prophets of Israel.../ only Elijah.. • God told Elijah to tell the King that...? • Jezebel wanted to kill Elijah for saying this, so Elijah... • What made it difficult for Elijah to preach his message? (that the people of Israel should worship only God) • **What sort of personal qualities do you need to be a prophet?
1. Summarise what happened in the second video: • God said/ land of Sidon… • Met.. • Elijah asked for …promised.. jar of meal/ jug of oil… • Widow trusted… • Son died / Elijah.. • God told Elijah to go back to Israel and meet Ahab and tell him to.../ Mount Carmel • 2. What can you learn from the widow’s attitude? Why did God bother to help her through Elijah?
Summarise the 3rd video clip: • What was Elijah’s challenge to the Prophets of Baal? • What did Elijah tell the prophets of Baal to do? What happened? • What did Elijah himself do next? What happened? • **Why is Elijah called “the prophet of faithfulness”?
Why is Elijah called “the prophet of faithfulness”? Write a prayer that Elijah might write for people of today, on how to be faithful to God.
Elijah didn’t die. He was “taken up into heaven” . He “reappeared” again to talk to Jesus at the Transfiguration. What advice could he give Jesus about serving God ? Draw Jesus with Elijah and Moses talking to Jesus. Speech bubble the advice Elijah might be giving Jesus.
