In this sermon, we see Elijah praying for it to rain in the aftermath of the contest on Mount Carmel. We see how Elijah holds to God's promises in prayer - and how he perseveres in prayer and has faith to believe that God can do it. In the same way, our prayer life needs to be marked by being focused on God's word and his promises - and we need to persevere in the same way Elijah does.
