## Resource

After defeating the prophets of Baal, Elijah flees Jezebel’s death threat and falls into despair. Exhausted, Elijah prays for death under a broom tree but is revived by an angel’s care. He journeys to Mount Horeb, where God speaks not through dramatic forces but through a low whisper, reminding Elijah of His quiet presence even in hard times. God reassures Elijah that he is not alone; there are 7,000 faithful people in Israel. Elijah is given new tasks, including the anointing of Elisha as his prophetic successor. This story teaches us about God’s care and presence in our struggles and His plans for our future, even when we feel discouraged.
