Grace for your spirit
It came about at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, "Call out with a loud voice, for he is a god; either he is occupied or gone aside, or is on a journey, or perhaps he is asleep and needs to be awakened." I Kings 18:27
After they cried all day,cut themselves and even broke down the alter....now what? Elijah knew that Baal was no god at all. Elijah knew Baal couldn't send fire or supply anything at all. Before he showed them the real power of the real God of heaven, he thought he would rub it in a little, He mocked them saying that their god might be in the bathroom, or on vacation, or taking a nap. When the real God sent fire on his first request, they would be reminded that the real God is always there for them. Their response opened the windows of heaven for the rain they needed. Where is our phony god when we need him?
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
