1 King 18:43 “Go and look toward the sea,” he told his servant. And he went up and looked. “There is nothing there,” he said. Seven times Elijah said, “Go back.”
How many times do you pray for something? Once? Twice? Three times?
Elijah was trying to show Ahab how important faith is, not a faith which lasts an hour or two, but real faith.
Trusting in God means putting your trust in Him always!
