One of the last sermons my dad preached before he got too sick from cancer to continuing preaching was on the story of Elijah calling down fire from heaven to destroy the armies of Ahaziah. From Samaria Ahaziah had ordered his commanders to get the prophet.
So one by one Ahaziah’s commanders set out from Samaria to find and capture Elijah. And one by one Elijah calls down fire to consume them. Ahaziah had received a message from the prophet he didn’t like and he wanted to confront Elijah. Elijah finally agreed to go Ahaziah.
My dad loved Elijah. Loved preaching these stories of Elijah demonstrating the power of God over the wicked kings and false gods. But on this night in April or 2016 he preached this message in a way I had never heard him preach it before. A few years earlier mom and dad divorced.
