Learning through experience definitely makes an impression. We can all learn from hard knocks, but it’s a lot less painful to learn by example. First Corinthians 10:6 and 11 say that the experiences of those in the Bible were recorded for our examples. Elijah’s story is full of great examples, both good and bad. 00:06 Andrew continues his series on Lessons from Elijah. It’s the final week of teaching for this series. 01:39 Encourage viewers to own the product for further study and to share the lessons for other people. 02:32 The effect that Elijah had not only on himself, but also for other people after he fell is discourage. He got so discourage that on 1 King 19:4, he ask God to take away his life. 03:12 Andrew explains the time when he believed, pursued, confessed to see a person raised from the dead that when it finally happened he think he arrived. He has seen God flowed through him thinking God did it for him (self glorified) but he quickly realized to give God the glory. God used the donkey in the Old Testament, He can use anybody else. A lesson Andrew has to learn. 0440 Anytime you think, “you are the only one” like Elijah, you are headed for a fall. The Lord gave Elijah a retake giving three things to do but only did one; anoint Elisha to take his place (1 King 19:19). 0630 Elisha called one of the sons of the prophets to anoint Jehu as King of the people of the Lord, over Israel (2 Kings 9:1-6), a task that Elijah failed to do. Jehu strikes down the house of Ahab, the house of Jeroboam, and the house of Baasha as commanded by the Lord (2 King 9:7-10). 10:11 When Elijah failed two thirds of what the Lord asked him. His downfall affected not only himself but other Godly people their lives. We need to realize that it is not just about us. Our lives affect so many people. 14:01 Elijah immediate act of anointing his successor basically means giving up, ready to exit (1 King 19:19). This actions allowed Ahab and Jezebel continued reign over a decade killing Godly people and bringing ungodliness over the Southern tribe of Judah. Hundreds even thousands of people died and under oppression. 15:15 Jehoshaphat, Godly King of Judah made peace with Ahab and Jezebel by taking their daughter to marry his sons. 17:06 Andrew explains that in our nation right now we are facing one of the most critical times in the history of United States. Our entire Western culture that was founded with Christian principles is being threatened by the ungodliness, and political correctness passing laws that are completely against every single thing this nation was founded upon. 19:01…. For the sons of this world are more shrewd in their generation than the sons of light (Luke 16:8) because the people that don’t believe in heaven and eternity are only focus in this life. Sometimes these people (sons of the world) are more involve than Christians. Andrew heard a statistics that there are 25,000,000 evangelical Christians did not vote in the 2012 elections. Their lack of vote allowed the ungodliness because of this, the nations has made gay marriage a constitutional rights, which is against the Word of God. 21:50 Brothers and sisters there are many of you that have been touch by God through healing or have an opinion of the morality or immorality being promoted in our nations base on the Word of God but are too afraid to stand up speak the truth because we do not want to offend anyone or criticize as a religious fanatic. Our lack of actions just like Elijah cause peoples their lives heading to destructions, allowing Satan to operate in their life. We as believers are the salt and the light of this world; we need to let our light shine. ============================================ Andrew Wommack Ministries http://www.awmi.net/ https://www.facebook.com/AWMinistries https://twitter.com/andrewwommack https://instagram.com/andrewwommack/ https://www.pinterest.com/andrewwommack/ ====================================================== https://youtu.be/ZijPUFYQUfE
