1king 19:1-18
Elijah did not consider the opinion of God, so he arose and ran for his life. He went as far as Beersheba the southernmost city, left his servant there and still began to walk for another day into the desert. He later became exhausted. At this point, he gave up on life and living. Both master and servant became weary in running, master became fainting in walking. That will not be your portion in life in Jesus name.
Let's consider this remaining point...
2 . NOTICE HOW ELIJAH GOT INTO THIS CONDITION OF DEPRESSION AND BREAKDOWN
He was MENTALLY overstrained. For 3 ½ years he had experienced terrific tension, culminating in the great victory on Mount Carmel and the slaughter of the priests (1 Kings 18). Is it to be wondered that he was exhausted mentally and nervously?
He was PHYSICALLY exhausted. Not only had the experiences of the past years made heavy demands upon his body, but now he had just taken an 18-mile cross-country run!
He was SPIRITUALLY out-of-touch. In 1 Kings 19:2-3 (KJV) particularly notice the words “when he saw that …” - and compare Matthew 14:30. Elijah took his eyes off the Lord and looked at his circumstances - the threats of Jezebel. If you want to be depressed, fearful, filled with self-pity etc., take your eyes off the Lord and look at your circumstances, the problems of this weary world - just take a good look at yourself!
These were the three reasons for Elijah’s collapse - he was sick mentally, physically and spiritually, and these must be considered together, for the mental affects the spiritual, the physical affects the mental - and so on.
3 . NOTICE HOW ELIJAH WAS DEALT WITH BY THE DIVINE PHYSICIAN AND THE CURE THAT WAS PRESCRIBED FOR HIM THAT SET HIM ON THE ROAD TO RECOVERY
Elijah was physically exhausted, so the Lord attended to the needs of his BODY. Look up Psalm 103:14. God prescribed food, sleep and plenty of fresh air - read verses 5-7. He gave His servant a six-weeks’ holiday! It is essential that we pay attention to these three simple rules for bodily health: (1) nourishing food, regularly taken; (2) regular and sufficient sleep; (3) fresh air, exercise and relaxation.
Elijah was mentally overstrained, so the Lord dealt with his MIND. His mental outlook was distorted and unbalanced, so after six weeks of rest and care, good feeding and fresh air, the Lord came to him and repeated His question (verses 9 and 13). His object was to cause Elijah to face realities - to face up to his fears and problems and look them squarely in the face.
Elijah was out-of-touch spiritually, so the Lord dealt with his SOUL. He gave him a wonderful vision of His power, glory and tenderness - with verses 11-12 compare Psalm 46:10. Elijah needed physical restoration and mental renewal, but most of all spiritual revival.
Most wonderful of all, the Lord did not accuse Elijah of his failure, but when He restored him He recommissioned him - verse 15!
God is still calling you for restoration...The journey is far..you can go all along alone...
Closing Thought: Psalm 27:13.
