He died in depression in the cave, but God whispered
In the early morning after forty days, Elijah came to the foot of Mount Sinai. The mountains are deep in the desert, and the wild grasses that are shaken by the mountain winds are the only living creatures. Elijah was kneeling down the mountain, looking for the remains of the ancestors camping here four hundred years ago, but only saw the sands everywhere. He turned to climb the mountain along the mountain road that Moses and Joshua passed. More than seven thousand feet of mountain peaks hunting in the north, as if every day, the black rocks have witnessed the violent winds and violent earthquakes they once suffered. That was four hundred years ago.
Elijah turned to look down the mountain, imagining that four million ancestors had made a covenant with God under the mountain, but worshipped the Lord as the true God and agreed to accept his discipline. From then on, he became an independent nation from the spiritual level and became the only one. The country that God personally leads.
However, God, they have abandoned you today. Elijah looked at the northeast and looked mournful. The Israeli king Ahab, who was hundreds of miles away, was still indulging in the worship of the gods in the Baal Temple. The beautiful Jezebel was still damaging the believers of the Lord. God, do you hide your face from their sins and tolerate when they will be? If Israel goes on like this, I am afraid that the country will not be a country. Now the king of Aram (Syria) in the north is sharpening the sword, and your people are like a sleeping sheep, comfortable in the dream of the pagan wind.
The setting sun fell, the mountains were quiet, the mountain winds were clearer, and the white hair of Elijah was blown away, and his silent sigh was blown away. He found a cave, flashed in, prepared to spend the night in it, and then waited to die. The cave is dark, but there is no cold wind.
Someone in the cave suddenly spoke: "Elijah, what are you doing here?"
Elijah was shocked, sitting up and looking around, the cave was dark, but no one else. Elijah knew that God was talking and shouted out loud, "I am full of enthusiasm for the Lord God of Hosts, because Israel has forsaken your covenant, destroyed your altar, and killed your prophet with a knife. I am left alone, but they are still chasing my life."
God said to him: "You stand out on the mountain and stand in front of me."
Elijah was angry and refused to see God, but stayed in the cave and sat in the same place. At this time, the wind suddenly burst into the wind, rolling up the dust, and the hole was like a dust curtain. The squally wind whistling between the cracks of the stone, mixed with the rumble of large and small stones being blown down the hillside. Elijah used the outer scorpion to cover the dust, and the mind knew that it was God's work, and did not dare to speak.
After a moment, the wind stopped, and the inside and outside of the cave was peaceful, as if the wind had never blown. Elijah had to take off the nephew on his head. Suddenly the cave swayed violently. Elijah hurriedly swayed all over the body. The entire Sinai Mountain was swaying, such as a lonely boat floating in the sea during heavy rain. From time to time, there were mountain peaks. A screaming noise.
After the earthquake, the outside of the cave fell into silence again. If it was enveloped by the vacuum, the wind would disappear. Elijah was about to get up, and suddenly there was a few bangs outside the cave, and the snakes of the size of the lightning flashed into the hills, igniting the dry shrubs on the ground, and the outer layers of the caves were covered by layers. Mottled carpet adorned with flames. The fire quickly ignited, leaving the lingering black smoke. Then it was a quiet moment.
Elijah heard a subtle sound outside the cave, unlike the natural one. He listened attentively, but couldn't tell, so he got up and continued to wrap his head with his nephew, walked to the hole, and watched it out. There are only sporadic afterfires like fireflies flickering outside the cave.
"Elijah, what are you doing here?" The same voice sounded.
Elijah replied as it was: "I am full of enthusiasm for the Lord God of Hosts, because Israel has forsaken your covenant, destroyed your altar, and killed your prophet with a knife. Now I am alone, but they still Retrieving my life."
God has a new mission to him: "Go back and go from the wilderness to Damascus (the capital of Aram). When you get there, you must anoint Haze to be the king of Aram, and then the grandson of the son of Ning, the king of Israel, and the cream Elisha the son of Fas took over from you as a prophet. In the future, the slashing of the sword of Haxue will be slain by Jehu; the one who shuns the sword of Jehu will be killed by Elisha. But I left 7,000 for myself in Israel. It was never bent to Baal."
Three years of drought have not awakened people, God will use a sword to plow. Mount Sinai has returned to calm, the night is like a wash, the stars are full, and God is no longer talking.
Ten days later, a dawn, a small town on the west bank of the Jordan River, a strong man plowed the field in the field, and the twelve cows in front of him were plowing the dry land like a quilt. The man was half naked, the bare head and face were covered with dust, and the sweat ran down, such as plowing a ridge on the chest. He saw someone coming to the sun in the face of the sun, but he did not recognize it. He stopped the farmer and stopped looking.
The man approached and put the nephew in his hand on the shoulder of the man and said, "Elisha, I am Elijah, you, come and follow me."
God saves twice, but he is against God.
After three years of drought, the rain has continued, and the city of Samaria has recovered its vitality. The autumn harvest is just around the corner, and the orchards everywhere are full of ripe fruit.
King Ahab sat in the palace, but his head was like the figs that he had sunburned after the fall. He was unable to bow down. The ministers around him also bowed their heads and did not dare to look at the Syrian special envoy standing in front of Ahab.
The special envoy squinted and looked at King Ah, waiting for him to return.
The long silence, such as the sea water, drowned Ahab. He seemed to suddenly make a water surface and sighed a long sigh. He said to the special envoy: "Please allow you to avoid a moment. When I discuss with the ministers about the request you just made, how can I reply to you?" ”
After the special envoys evaded, Ahab seemed to speak to the ministers and said to himself: "A few days ago, this special envoy came, and the message of the king of Yalan said: 'Your gold and silver and the most beautiful wife and children in your family are It’s mine. 'I promised it. But today he brought new demands. Tomorrow, not only will I take my most beloved wife and children, but I will also send my subordinates to my royal palace and your family’s house to search. Take away any of their treasures. The king of Aram, Hada, is too deceiving, but he has no choice but to be under the city, and he has united thirty-two kings, and the chariot is like a cloud. And we have not even had time to gather troops..."
After a long silence, some ministers said, "Well, if we promise, Israel will die. Benjad is insatiable. This time, he will make a more unreasonable request." Others also said Agree, but no specific countermeasures were proposed. Ahab sighed again and called the special envoy of King Aram, and reluctantly said: "Please tell me the Lord, my first time, the servant, I can do it, but The servant can't live without it when he wants it."
The messenger listened, sneered, and thanked and left.
The king of Aram, Hada, was drinking in the camp. After listening to the special envoy, he laughed and said, "You will tell Ahab again. After I attacked the city, the dust on the ground in the city is not enough. I grab one for each soldier. If not So, may God punish me."
The special envoy went and soon returned. He said to Benjad: "Aha is so vocal: King Aram does not just wear armor and boasts. It is not too late to blow off the armor and then boast."
King Yalan listened and threw the glass in his hand on the ground. He stood up and walked out of the big account, and ordered his men to attack the city. The soldiers were prepared and tidy into the battle position. Ahab stood on the wall and saw the enemy soldiers in the city as if they were out of the nest. They were densely packed and gathered under the city to enter the siege situation, waiting for Benhad to issue a final order. At this time, the rising sun was rising, and the chariot of the enemy soldiers under the city shone with the golden light of the monks. Seeing that Ahab was frightened, there was nothing to do.
Suddenly someone asked to see. Ahab did not recognize the coming. The man self-reported was the prophet of the Lord. Ahab was shocked. I wonder if he would come to attack me at this moment, to avenge the hundreds of Jehovah prophets who had been killed in the past few years. Can't help but panic.
The prophet said, "The Lord said, "Have you seen this brigade? I will hand them over to you today, so that you know that I am the Lord."
Ahab did not think that God actually sent the prophet to come to the rescue. He was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Who is going to complete this task?"
The prophet replied, "The Lord said, defend the youth army under the district."
Ahab asked again: "Who is going to do the command?"
The prophet replied: "You."
Ahab immediately summoned the 230 young soldiers and summoned the soldiers who dared to fight in the city to a total of 7,000. At this time, the autumn was high, it was the afternoon, and Hada and the thirty-two kings drank and ate in the accounts. Suddenly, the sentinel reported that there were small units out of the city of Samaria and was coming. Benjad was drunk and ordered: "Catch them, no matter what they want."
His men took the lead and Benjad continued to drink with the kings. Suddenly the voices of the people were boiling, and the footsteps were like the rivers that flooded the floods, shaking the tents. Benjad was shocked and hurried out of the account. He saw his soldiers face their fears and panic. They rushed to the north and rushed to the north. He hurriedly pulled a person to ask about the situation. The man hurriedly replied: "Israel is like a soldier. We can't beat one of them. We are killed by them in front of us...." It’s too late to finish. And quickly ran away.
Benjadah resisted the drunkenness and tried to stabilize the situation, but he was helpless. The army had already gone, and the soldiers were defeated. Only the personal guards followed closely. Ben Hada saw that he was about to become a front line. He couldn’t help but jumped on the horse and fled back to his capital, Damascus.
Ahha’s victory, the numerous heavy horses abandoned by the king of Aram, was about to celebrate, and the prophet saw Ahab again. He said, “You must strengthen your defense and be prepared, because the king of Aram will come back next spring.”
In the spring of the second year, Hada had made a comeback. This time, after listening to the advice of the advisers, he removed the thirty-two kings and replaced his cronies. He no longer besieged the mountain city of Samaria, but bypassed it to the south. Live on the plains near the sea on the city of Yafu. The soldiers were also encouraged to say: "The God of Israel is the god of the mountains, so we defeated us last time. This time we fight in the plains, we will win."
The Syrians actually broke through Yafu. Although Ahab was prepared, it was difficult to send troops to the battle of Yafu. Another prophet said to Baha, "The Lord said, 'The Syrians thought that my Lord is a mountain god, not a plain god, so I will give his people to you, so that you will know that I am the Lord."
Baha was encouraged and confronted with Alan, but there was no shortage of soldiers, such as the morning star before sunrise. Benjad did not dare to act rashly, and confronted Baja for seven days. On the seventh day, the two armies fought, Israel was fierce than last time, killing 100,000 Yalan troops a day.
As night fell, the surviving Syrians poured into the city of Aphrodite, and the city was crowded with water. The wall was actually crushed and crushed down 28,000 people under the wall. The Israelites took the opportunity to enter the country, and the results were more prominent than during the day.
Ahab brought people to search for captives and dead bodies, but could not find Benjamin. Suddenly several Yalan people wore a pair of burlap sackcloths and hoods and ropes came out from a house. They came to see Ahab and said, "The servant will ask Hada to ask for the king's fortune!"
Ahha listened, his face smiled and said loudly: "Is he still alive? He is my brother."
The soldiers around listened, and they could not help but stay in the same place.
She is beautiful, killing but hard-hearted
For the second time, Ahab was saved by God, defeated the Syrians, and captured the king of Aram, Hada. In order to survive, Benjah said, "I will return the city that my father took from your father. You can set up a trade zone in Damascus, just like my father set up in Samaria."
Ahha listened to the big joy and immediately said, "If you make a covenant, I will let you go."
So the two countries made a covenant, and Ahab put Benjah back to China. He also returned to Beijing as a class teacher. He thought about the two wars and the two, and he was complacent. Gradually, the army entered the suburbs of Samaria, and the wheat in the fields on both sides was heading and growing green. Ahado did not see his wife, Jezebel, and the swallow flew into the palace with the swallows on the side of the road, but he was suddenly surprised to see a person standing on the side of the road, covered in a swollen body, and the bandage on his head oozing blood.
The man was a prophet. He attracted Ahab’s gaze and said to him, “Why are you leaving Benjamin? About this, the Lord said, 'You let go of the people I decided to destroy, so yours Life is to reach his life, and your people’s lives will be up to the lives of their people.'"
After listening to Ahab, the inner joy disappeared in an instant, but he did not dare to ask the prophet of God. He sat in the chariot and said nothing, and went into the city with sullenness.
Jezebel in the palace prepared a grand banquet early, welcoming the returning king and the soldiers. Ahha saw the full love in the eyes of the glamorous wife. The annoyance of the previous smack disappeared. He stood in the temple, gave a short speech, encouraged the soldiers, and then treated everyone with good wine.
After this incident, the peacetime in Israel was restored. The three-year drought and two years of war ended, and the weather was smooth. Ahab restored the happy nature. The drought, the war are no longer, and the annoying prophets should not come again. After the harvest of wheat, the summer came, and Ahab took his wife to the summer residence of Jezreel to escape the heat, and by the way also repaired the royal orchard. The summer palace is leaning against the foot of Mount Carmel, overlooking the secluded green valley, with a pleasant climate and a splendid vineyard.
Jezebel went to the summer palace, and he was in a good mood and played everywhere. Ahhagan started his favorite civil engineering, personally designed the garden around the summer palace, and directed the workers to work in the garden every day. At the dinner, he naturally opened his appetite, and while eating and Jezebel said the daily progress.
But one evening, Jezebel went back to the palace from outside and went into the inner room, thinking that Ahab would wait for her to sit down as usual, but found that he was lying alone, facing the wall, sighing again and again.
Jeshua didn't feel bored, sitting sideways on the collapsed edge, his hand on the shoulder of Ahab, and softly asked: "Why is the king unhappy today?"
Yaha turned up and sat up, sighing and said: "The garden in this palace is only missing a vegetable garden. With the vegetable garden, we can grow vegetables, no need to go outside to buy. There is a man named Nabo who has a bunch of grapes. The garden, right next to our garden, is suitable for being converted into a vegetable garden. So I went to find him today, let him pick me another piece of exchange, or change it into money."
"What is the result?" Ye Jie, don't smile, look at Ahab.
"The result is that Nabo does not give me face at all. He also said that his industry was given to his ancestors by the Lord and passed down from generation to generation. I will not exchange anything with anything." ups and downs.
"Just about this?", Jezebel’s nephew smiled: "Are you still not the king of Israel? Get up, ah, let's have a happy dinner. I promise you will get the vineyard." ”
On the second day, Jezebel wrote a letter, and sealed the seal of the king of Ahab, and sent it to the elders and nobles in the area where Nabo was. In the letter, Ahab said: "You must declare fasting, let Nabo sit in the first place among the people, ask the two rogues to sit opposite him, accuse him of cursing God and the king, then condemn him to death, and pull him. Go out and kill with stones."
Ahha didn't know the details, but he didn't worry about it anymore, but went to other projects in the park. A few days later, at dinner time, Ahab bowed his head to eat, and Jeze said, "I’ve eaten and forgot Napoleon’s vineyard. I have good news, the vineyard is here today. !"
Ahha listened, laughed, ran out of the palace, went straight to the vineyard, squatted in the garden, looked left and right, and started the design of the garden.
In a twinkling of an eye, the weather turned cold, and the various kinds of vegetables that Ahha sown in the garden emerged with tender green seedlings. Ahha goes to see the food after getting up every day, just like watching his own children. On the early morning of this day, Ahab raised the seedlings in the garden and saw a man coming to him from afar. He got up and looked at it, waiting for the man to approach, it was Elijah. Ahab had not seen him since he asked for the rain from Mount Carmel. Elijah was still wearing the nephew. It was still so thin, but it was more white.
"My old man, are you coming to me again?" Ahha's chill.
"I am coming again, because you are doing what the Lord regards as evil. The Lord said, 'Do you kill the people, but also take his inheritance? Where is the dog's blood, and where will you marry you? Blood. I will bring disaster to you, destroy you completely, eradicate all the men in your family, whether slaves or free men. I will make your family's end as the former Jerobo and Basha homes, because you provoke I am angry and bring the Israelites into sin."
Ahha’s face was pale and cold sweats, and he couldn’t help but distinguish: “I don’t know about this, it’s what my wife did.”
Elijah continued: "As for Jezebel, the Lord said, 'The dog will eat the flesh of Jezebel at the wall of Jezreel. All who belong to Ahab will die in the city, and will die." In the countryside, you will be squatted."
After Elijah finished, he turned and left, leaving Ahab in the same place. The autumn wind seemed to be suddenly blown up, and Ahab trembled, like the leaves of the shudder in the autumn wind.
His organs counted, but they did not escape God’s "accidental" incident.
There was no war between Israel and Yalan for three years. During the reign of the Israeli king Yaha, the summer palace of Jezreel was expanded. After killing Nabo, he grabbed his orchard and merged it into the summer palace. After that, Ahab’s days were dull and boring, and he decided to start the next project. On this day, Judas, the king of Judah, came to visit, so he slaughtered the sheep and killed the sheep in the palace, and together with the ministers, he would treat Joshua.
This Jehoshaphat was the son of Asa who died of a sickness and had been king in Jude for seventeen years. At the beginning of his ascension, in order to prevent the invasion of Ahab, build borders and drill soldiers, there are more than one million soldiers around Jerusalem. He reused the priests in the temple, appointed judges who feared the Lord to enforce the law, and personally took the Law of Moses and went to Judas to teach the people. Then the Lord greatly blessed the kingdom of Judah, and the nations around him feared and confessed to Judah. Ahab also made a good relationship with Joshua and married his daughter to the Prince of Joshua. The two often exchanged visits.
Ahab talked with Joshua at the meeting. He couldn’t help but show off the king of Yalan three years ago. He suddenly remembered something and turned to his head and said to the minister: "You all know that Gilead’s Lama is us. The territory, but it has been occupied by Yalan so far, can we sit back and ignore it and not take it back from the king of Aram?"
The comrades of the public are indignant, and they have to revive their country. Ahab was more vocal and turned back to ask Joshua: "Would you like to go with me to attack Lama of Gilead?"
"You and I don't know each other. My people are your people. My horse is your horse." Joshua paused and said, "But, for such a big event, you should ask the Lord first."
When Ahab felt right, he asked Jehoshaphat to go out of the palace and go to the square outside the gate of Samaria. He called four hundred prophets to wait there. These people watched the two kings sit down. Beginning to make a prophecy loudly, one of them was named Xidijia, holding two iron horns and shouting at Ahab: "The Lord said, 'You will come to Aram as this iron horn until they destroy them.'" The prophets also prophesied together and said, "Go and attack the Lama, the king will surely win, and the Lord will deliver the city to the king."
Ahab smiled and asked Joshua: "What is your intention?" Jehoshaphat feared God, and often touched the solemn priests in the temple, and saw these people shouting like drunkards, even some people on the ground. Rolling around, I felt vague and uneasy inside, and asked Ahab: "There is no other prophet in Israel. Can we ask God's will?"
Yaha frowned and said: "There is a person named Michai, and the prophecy will be accomplished, but his prophecy is all fierce, and there is no good news. It is quite awkward for me, not like the hundreds of people in front of me. prophet."
Jehoshaphat also frowned and said, "The king should not say this." Ahha heard the meaning of Joshua's law, and called a servant to say, "You will call Micahya quickly."
Soon after, Micaia stood in front of Ahab. Ahab asked him: "Micaya, can I go to attack Rama?"
Micaia sneered aloud: "Go up and attack, you must win, and the Lord will deliver the city to the king."
When Ahha heard his taunting tone, he said in a round: "How many times do I want to marry you, will you tell me the truth in the name of the Lord?"
Micaiah listened, and looked at the distance, looking at the distance: "I saw the people of Israel scattered on the mountain, as if there were no flocks of shepherds. The Lord said, 'These people have no masters, let them go home safely. .." said tears.
Ahab said to Jehoshaphat: "I have not made a mistake. This man's prophecy is all fierce and fierce." Xidijia also put down two iron horns and went forward to slap Michai: "You guy, actually Say this frustration."
Micaia sneered again and said to Ahab, "I saw the Lord sitting on the throne and asked the angel who stood by him. "Who wants to lure Ahab to Ramah to die?" The Heavenly Army is talking about it. An angel came out and was willing to go and said, 'I can be a liar, and tell the prophets to utter a lie.' Now, look, the Lord has put the spirit into the mouths of these prophets, and the Lord has decided to blame you."
Yaha’s face changed greatly. Zedekah hurried forward, and took a slap in the face of Micah, and said, "When did the Lord's Spirit leave me to speak to you?"
Micaia looked at him and said, "You know when you escape into the secret room to escape."
Ahab was afraid of Miaiaya’s words that made him even more embarrassed. He said: “Come on, grab this gibberish Miyaya, and throw it into prison. After I return from Ramothy, I will clean up. He is not too late."
So Ahab decided to send troops, and Joshua was not good at violating the promises of the previous troops. So the two kings joined forces and went to Rama. Ahha, because of Miya's prophecy, after all doubts in his heart, he first put on a thick armor, took off his robes, put on the uniforms of ordinary soldiers, sat in a special chariot, and asked Josha to wear it. On the king's suit, help him to transfer the enemy's sight.
After the defeat of the Arameans three years ago, they were reluctant to retire, and they intended to be ashamed of this battle. The two sides were in the suburbs of Lama, and they were killed in one place. The Syrians saw the royal suit of Jehoshaphat, thinking that he was Ahab, and that he was heavily attacked, and that Jehoshaphat was in a critical state and screamed the men. The commander of Aram’s chariot heard Ahab and heard that Jehoshaphat was not Ahab, and he moved to other places. Ahab is hiding behind the front line and watching the war. He is safe and self-defeating. Suddenly a cold arrow shot, unbiased, just shot the gap between the armor of Ahab and penetrated into Ahab.
Yaha yelled and looked down at the cold arrow embedded in the armor. He had already flowed out of the arrow and dribbled into the chariot. Ahab said to the captain of the battle: "I was seriously injured when I drove away from here." The captain hurriedly turned around and pulled back. Aha helped the car frame and watched the battle.
The war in front was fierce, and the Arameans gradually gained the upper hand. At dusk, the battlefield blew the horn of the troops, and the Israeli and Judah coalition forces were defeated. At that time, Ahab could not hear the horrified steps of the defeated soldiers. He died of too much blood and died in the car before the sunset fell.
Yaha was buried in Samaria. His chariot was pulled to the pool where the prostitutes outside the city bathed. The wild dogs smelled bloody and ran to the pool. They ate the car and took the blood of Ahab and drank the pool. The blood in the water, as the Lord said by Elijah.
The same crime, the wrong and the stubborn fate
After the defeat of the Ahab, the king of Judah, Joshua, fled back to Jerusalem. The prophet Jehu came to condemn and say, "How can you help the wicked Ahab and love the one who hates the Lord? You have angered God by doing this."
After the hearing of Jehoshaphat, he went to all the towns and towns, and taught the law of the Lord to the people, and appointed judges, priests, and elders who feared God.
God then blessed the nation of Judah. At that time, Moab and Aachen in the east of Judah were defeated by Judah, crossed the Dead Sea, invaded Judah, and attacked only one day from Jerusalem. The whole city was terrified. Jehoshaphat took the officials and the people to the temple and prayed to God personally.
The Word of God came to the Levites Yahash: "Don't be terrified by the mighty enemy, because the victory and defeat of the war does not care about you, but cares for God. You will meet the enemy tomorrow, and you will meet them at the mouth of the valley before the wilderness of Yale. But you don't have to fight, just hold the battle, stand still, and see the Lord give you salvation."
So the next day Judas sent troops, went to Taniguchi, and refused with the enemy. Joshua put an orchestra in front of the army and sang and praised God. The song whirls in the valley, and the gods make the enemy unconscious and begin to kill each other. At the end, the corpse is full of valleys and no one escapes. The Jewish army collected property from the enemy camp and did not finish it three days later. On the fourth day they came to a valley and praised God together. From then on it was called the Biraga Valley, until today.
Jehoshaphats fought against the enemy in the first battle, and the countries around them dared not to marry Judas. God also blessed the last eight years of Jehoshaphat's rule, and the country and the people were in peace.
But after the death of Ahab, the king of Israel, his son Ahaziah succeeded. At that time, Moab also betrayed Israel and continued to invade in the east. Ahaziah was stunned by the war. One day he lost his foot on the platform of the palace, suffered many fractures, and fell seriously. He did not see better in bed for many days. In the pain of the bones, I heard that the Ephesus Temple in the west of the Philistines enshrined the king of the fly, Besib, who was in charge of life and death. He sent several messengers to go, and the divination was healed.
Several of the messengers followed, but returned to the palace the next morning. Ahaziah was puzzled and it was impossible to go back and forth in Ekron for only two days. The messenger explained: "We have just walked to the suburbs, and one person intercepted us on the road. We want to come back and tell you, the Lord said to you, 'You are going to ask the god of Ekron to see Beib, because Israel does not have Real God? So you can't get out of bed anymore, you will die."
Yan Yahaxi was shocked and asked the messenger: "Why does that person know your mission?"
The messenger also confused and shook his head: "The man did not ask where we are going, but said these words directly."
Ahazi said again: "How is that person looking?"
The messenger said: "The man is skinny, with a long face, a sly look, wearing a beast skin, and a leather belt at the waist. There is another person behind him, bald and hairless, and his face is cautious."
Ahaziah was furious and shouted: "This man will be Elijah, and his father Ahha has been predicted by him to die. No matter what, I want him to predict my body to heal."
Ahazi sent an officer and fifty soldiers to go to arrest Elijah. The next day, someone rushed into the palace and said to Ahaziah: "Well, I put sheep in the wild yesterday, and saw dozens of princes of the king surrounded by a hill, sitting on the hill with the prophet Elijah and his disciples. Lisa. The officer said to Elijah, 'God man, the king commands you to come down from the mountain.' Elijah replied, 'If I am a man of God, let the fire of heaven come down and destroy all of you.' Falling, there is a fire tongue that hits these people like lightning. They are black and smoke, and they fall to the ground and die. No one is spared. The Lord is terrible. I am so scared that I let go of the flock and come to tell you all this. ""
In a moment of anger, Ahaziah forgot the pain of his body. He immediately issued a new order: "Come, send another officer to rate 50 soldiers, and take Elijah into the palace."
The next day, the shepherd ran into the palace again and cried to Ahazi: "Wang, the fifty soldiers you sent yesterday, like the one sent the day before yesterday, were all burned to death by God. The Lord is awesome." May the king think twice before God."
Ahaziah was undecided and sent the same number of soldiers again. He didn't believe that he actually won't win a bare-handed prophet.
The officer went away and saw Elijah in the same place. The officer came forward, kneeling in front of Elijah, pleading: "God's servant, please spare me and your fifty servants' lives. The two people who came before were burned to death by the fire. Now, please forgive me!"
Elijah stood up and said to the officer: "You don't have to be afraid. Just now the word of God came to me and told me to enter the palace with you."
Ahaziah finally saw Elijah in the hospital bed. Elijah wore an old animal skin, tightly wrapped around his belt, and when he was submerged, he went to the king’s sickbed and said to Ahaziah: "Yahweh Someone said to you, 'You are asking people to ask Ekron for the gods of Ekron, because Israel has no real God to ask? Therefore, you can no longer get out of bed, no doubt."
Ahaziah heard the same words from the mouth of Elijah as the messengers said, and it was also what God said to Ahaziah. Ahaziah did not dare to help Elijah, but he did not repent at all, and did not ask God for forgiveness. He was overwhelmed by self-respect and self-pity, gradually entering a coma, and died in bed a few days later.
Ahaziah was only two years in office and had no sons. The throne was inherited by his brother Yoland.
Elijah is old. He knows that his day of death is near, and his time with the disciple Joshua is farewell.
