The prophets heard messages from God and then told the people God’s messages.  \nElijah was a prophet when Ahab was king over the kingdom of Israel. Ahab was an evil man who encouraged people to worship a false god named Baal. Elijah said to Ahab,“There will beno rain or dew in the kingdom of Israel until I say so.” This made Ahab very angry.  \nGod told Elijah to go to a stream in the wilderness to hide from Ahab who wanted to kill him. Every morning and every evening, birds would bring him bread and meat. Ahab and his army looked for Elijah, but they could not find him. The drought was so severe that the stream eventually dried up.  \nSo Elijah went to a neighboring country. A widow and her son in that country had almost run out of food because the lack of rain had caused a famine. But they took care of Elijah, and God provided for them so that their flour jar and their bottle of oil never became empty. They had food through the whole famine.  \nElijah stayed there for several years.  \nAfter three and a half years, God told Elijah to return to the kingdom of Israel and speak with Ahab because he was going to send rain again. When Ahab saw Elijah he said,“There you are, you troublemaker!” Elijah replied to him,“You are the troublemaker! You have abandoned Yahweh, the true God, and worshiped Baal. Bring all the people of the kingdom of Israel to Mount Carmel.”  \nAll the people of the kingdom of Israel, including the 450 prophets of Baal, came to Mount Carmel. Elijah said to the people,“How long will you keep changing your mind? If Yahweh is God, serve him! If Baal is God, serve him!”","cbCaiuZZFmwcZtbx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuZZFmwcZtbx","pdf",429559,1,24,"English","en",105,"# The Prophets\n## God Sends Prophets and Messages\n## Elijah Confronts Ahab\n## Drought, Hiding, and God’s Provision\n## Return and the Challenge on Mount Carmel","[{\"question\":\"What role did the prophets play in Israel’s history?\",\"answer\":\"God sent prophets with messages from Him, and the prophets then told the people God’s messages.\"},{\"question\":\"Why was King Ahab angry with Elijah?\",\"answer\":\"Ahab encouraged worship of Baal.
