The Trouble in Israel, 1 Kings 18:1‐19

September 22, 2019 • Josh Lindstrom

King Ahab blames Elijah for the drought and the trouble Israel is experiencing, but Elijah will rightly assert that it is Ahab’s disobedience to the commandments of the LORD and worship of Baal that has brought the calamity upon the land. Seeking to publicly vindicate the name of the LORD, Elijah calls all of Israel to witness. Though we can feel outnumbered at times, we trust in the name of the LORD.

1. The command (vs. 1-2a)
2. The servant (vs. 2b-6)
3. The encounter (vs. 7-16)
4. The reality (vs. 17-19)

The Successor, 2 Kings 2:1–14

November 24, 2019 • Josh Lindstrom

The battle with Baal is not over, but Elijah’s ministry has come to an end. Elijah will be succeeded by Elisha who, after witnessing Elijah ascending into heaven, receives a double portion of his spirit. While God does raise up individuals to do His work, His working power is never limited to any one individual. God will continue to accomplish His purposes through others even when our time is done. 1. Faithfulness in service (vs. 1-7) 2. Humility for the future (vs. 8-9) 3. Eyes that see (vs. 10-12a) 4. Respect for the past (v. 12b) 5.

The Final Confrontation, 2 Kings 1:1–18

November 17, 2019 • Josh Lindstrom

Just like he had confronted his father Ahab, Elijah is sent to confront Ahaziah. Instead of receiving Elijah’s rebuke and humbling himself, Ahaziah seeks to apprehend and capture the prophet with devastating consequences for the ones he sends. When we are confronted with the error of our ways, we must constantly seek a soft heart before the Lord and seek His forgiveness. 1. Where do you turn? (vs. 1-4) 2. How do you respond? (vs. 5-12) 3. Ask for mercy (vs. 13-14) 4. Soften your heart (vs. 15-18) Songs: Then He Rose #7111927 by M Brock, C Brown, S Furtick & C Tomlin © 2018 Music by Elevation Worship Publishing Overcome #7067561 by C Brown, M Brock & S Furtick © Music by Elevation Worship Publishing Faithful To The End #7054172 by B Johnson, H McClure, J Taylor & P McClure © 2015 Bethel Music Publishing Great Is Thy Faithfulness #18723 by T O Chisholm, W M Runyan © 1923 Renewed 1951 Hope Publishing Company O Come To The Altar #7051511 by C Brown, M Brock, S Furtick & W Joye © 2015 Be Essential Songs -------------------------------------------- Love Well Change Lives Through Christ It’s the vision of Woodmen, led by Pastor Josh Lindstrom, in the Pikes Peak area of Colorado Find more at https://woodmenvalley.org or download the Woodmen app at https://subsplash.com/woodmenvalleychapel/app — Connect with Us Website: https://woodmenvalley.org Woodmen Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/woodmen_valley_chapel/ Woodmen Twitter: https://twitter.com/welcome2woodmen Woodmen Facebook Pages: Central https://www.facebook.com/woodmenvalleychapel Heights https://www.facebook.com/woodmenheights Monument https://www.facebook.com/woodmenmoument Rockrimmon https://www.facebook.com/woodmenrockrimmon Southwest https://www.facebook.com/woodmensouthwest

A Contrast in Character, 1 Kings 22:29–53

November 10, 2019 • Josh Lindstrom

Though Ahab will die as result of his sin, his son Ahaziah does not turn from his father’s evil ways. Jehoshaphat, on the other hand, sought to do “what was right in the sight of the Lord” (1 Kings 22:3b). Jehoshaphat’s example shows us that it is possible to live rightly before God even in a day when others do not. God’s judgment (vs. 29-40) a. Ahab’s arrogance (vs. 29-31) b. His inevitable end (vs. 32-36) c. A complex obituary (vs. 37-40) 2. Our hope (vs. 41-50) 3. Your decision (vs. 51-53) Songs: The Lord Our God #6518055 by J Ingram & K Stanfill ©2013 sixsteps Music, http://worshiptogether.com songs Love So Great #7068428 by J Snell, J Grimmett & R Morgan ©2016 Hillsong Music Publishing God With Us (Torwalt) #7054539 by B Torwalt & K Torwalt ©2015 Capitol CMG Genesis Follow You Anywhere #7123196 by B Younker, K Stanfill, J Ingram & P Wickham 2019 Kristian Stanfill Publishing Designee, sixsteps Music, http://worshiptogether.com songs Build My Life #7070345 by B Younker, K Martin, K Kable, M Redman & P Barrett © Said And Done Music, sixsteps Music -------------------------------------------- Love Well Change Lives Through Christ It’s the vision of Woodmen, led by Pastor Josh Lindstrom, in the Pikes Peak area of Colorado Find more at https://woodmenvalley.org or download the Woodmen app at https://subsplash.com/woodmenvalleychapel/app — Connect with Us Website: https://woodmenvalley.org Woodmen Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/woodmen_valley_chapel/ Woodmen Twitter: https://twitter.com/welcome2woodmen Woodmen Facebook Pages: Central https://www.facebook.com/woodmenvalleychapel Heights https://www.facebook.com/woodmenheights Monument https://www.facebook.com/woodmenmoument Rockrimmon https://www.facebook.com/woodmenrockrimmon Southwest https://www.facebook.com/woodmensouthwest
