Four Lessons in Faith | 1 Kings 15-16

Introduction • How do you live by faith in a world of sin? 1. 'Do not fret because of evil men …' (15:1-24) • God is in control, so you can rest secure. 2. '… or be envious of the wicked.' (15:25-34) • Are you envious because the wicked have power? 3. 'For the evil man has no future hope …' (16:1-14) • Without God, this life is all they have. 4. '… and the lamp of the wicked will be snuffed out.' (16:15-34) • Look at what God did to all these kings – and repent! Conclusion • The ministry of Elijah is a prelude to the light of the Gospel. • 'As for me and my household, we will trust in the LORD!'
