In 1 Kings 18, Elijah experiences a great triumph against the prophets of Baal. By chapter 19, however, he is discouraged and feeling defeated. Gary Millar offers an encouraging word from this text, reminding us that just because we cannot see progress does not mean that God isn’t working. God’s people are to listen to what He has said through His Word, then do what He says in the strength that He provides.
