We’re speaking tonight about Elijah and making it a preview of our prayer meeting coming now. Elijah was a man…Many times when someone speaks of a man like Elijah, they would expect him to be a great angel, or, of some sort, or a sainted person that was dropped out of Heaven. But the Bible said that he—he was a man subject to like passions as we are. He has his ups and downs, his trials, his indifference, but he prayed earnestly that it wouldn’t rain. And it didn’t rain for three years and six months. And after three years and six months, he prayed again and the heavens gave rain.

Elijah, 1953-10-18, Louisville, KY, §15
