Elijah challenged Israel to stop wavering between God and idols, reminding us that halfway faith is no faith at all. In this message, we explore what it means to go ‘all in’ for God and how to live with bold, uncompromised faith today.
IMPACT CARD
Reading: 1 Kings 18:16-40
Discussion Questions:
Where do you see signs of halfway faith in your own walk with God? What would it look like for you to go all in in that area this week?
Elijah stayed loyal to God even when everyone around him was worshiping Baal. What are some “modern Baals” (idols) that pressure you to waver in your loyalty to God? How can you remain faithful when those pressures are strongest?
Elijah boldly stood up to 450 prophets of Baal. Where in your life right now is God calling you to take a bold stand for Him? What fears keep you from stepping into that, and how can this group encourage you in it?
The drought was both painful and an act of God’s grace to draw Israel back to Him. Can you share a time in your life when a “drought season” (pain, waiting, struggle) turned out to be something God used for your good? How does that change the way you view current struggles?
Is there something you’ve been praying for or waiting on God for where you feel tempted to give up? What would it look like for you to “look again” in faith this week?
