Summary

Just look at the woke joke folk on the internet, in government, and leading corporations and you can see the spirits of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel active in our day. Anywhere passivity allows controlling, manipulative spirits to do evil and harm, the Ahab and Jezebel spirits are alive and well. In this sermon based in 1 Kings 17:1-7, Pastor Mark preaches that the assertive Elijah spirit, equipped by God, will still overcome these evil spirits in our day as it did in the Old Testament.
