Dave Mitchell continues our Holy Spirit series by looking at the gift of prophecy.
(Please note that towards the end of this talk, Dave asked members of the congregation to share any words or pictures they had.

1 Kings 19: 1-18
With just a spoken threat from Jezebel, Elijah’s confidence and faith fell crashing down. He ran and hid in a cave as his emotional state spiralled, until God pulled him out.

Elijah had no way of looking after himself. He was completely dependent on the provision of God and the kindness of a stranger, who would normally be the last person Elijah would look to.
In this talk, Rob Scott-Cook asks what can we learn from who God used and how He acted, as well as Elijah’s obedience to God’s commands?
1 Kings 17:1-6
We see in 1 Kings 18 a major showdown with Elijah and the prophets of Baal and a miraculous encounter with the power of God.

Fear is a normal emotion and we need to learn to respond to it with skill and faith. In this talk, Tom Carter looks at three practical ways we can do this in daily life.
