Episode Notes

Great Comebacks 2

The Cave of Discouragement: Elijah

We find ourselves in this cave...

1. When We Lose Our FOCUS

- People & Circumstances both disappoint us

- Storms seem bigger than God when focus changes

2. When We Lose Our CONFIDENCE

- When we lose confidence in ourselves

- When we lose confidence in God

- We forget all He can do, Himself and through us

- Elijah forgot all that happened with prophets of Baal

We can exit the cave...

3. When We See God In His PROPER PERSPECTIVE

- ...as PROVIDER, v5

- Provides all our needs

- ...as ALL-POWERFUL, v11

- Elijah encountered God and chose to exit that cave.

- Circumstances didn't change, but Elijah did.
