| KIMBERLY KIRK Bible Teacher, Author and Speaker My name is Kimberly Kirk and I have a passion for teaching the Word of God that is beyond anything I can understand or even begin to put into words. I love digging into the Scriptures and allowing the Lord to reveal His truths and Himself to me. My heart’s desire is to see women catch a broader glimpse of who God really is, and for them to get to know Him more, not just know more about Him. May the Lord bless you as you continue to seek Him, and may He receive all the glory for He alone is worthy! Kimberly <><

| How Long? September Devotional – I Kings 18:16-39
At this time of year, we often hear people talking about how short the summer was and how fast it went. It is amazing how three months can fly by in what seems like the blink of an eye. But there is a question that God asked His people long ago through the prophet Elijah and it began with these words, “How long?” It came at a time when Ahab was king of Israel. He was one of the most wicked rulers of that nation, which is saying something since all of its kings (after the kingdom divided into two) did evil in the eyes of the Lord. As a judgment on Israel, God sent Elijah to proclaim a drought (I Kings 17:1). No rain fell on that land for three and a half years (James 5:17), and at the end of that time, Elijah asked Ahab to gather all the prophets of the false gods the people were worshiping, on Mount Carmel. All the Israelites came to see what was happening, and Elijah asked this question: "How long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him" (I Kings 18:21).
I believe the One True God often poses that question to each of us. What is our response? The Jews on that day had none – they just stood before Elijah in silence. What about us? We may proclaim that the God of the Bible is the Only One, but are we following Him? If He is God, then He should be on the throne of our hearts, guiding our thoughts and steps, transforming us into His image. Who or what is the driving force in our lives? Is it success, family, money, worry, self… or is it the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords?
On that day long ago on Mount Carmel, Elijah did a powerful demonstration that proved that Baal is no god and that the Lord is (I Kings 18:21-39). None of us stood with the prophet on that mountain, but we can read about what our God did on that day, and throughout history in His Word. How long will we ignore the Almighty, or acknowledge Him but only in certain areas of our lives? How long will we waver between two opinions? How long will we allow our passions and desires to rule our hearts? How long will we go through the motions in our relationship with God before surrendering all we know of us to all we understand of Him? How long? May we take Elijah’s words to heart: “If the Lord is God, follow him” (I Kings 18:21).
But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve…. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord." Joshua 24:15 |
