Arizona Receives Monsoon Rains – This Time the Rains Fell on Our Turf – I Heard a Loud Rumble and Opened the Door to See What Was Happening – When I Saw – I Thought of Elijah Calling Down Rain at Mount Carmel – Showers of Blessing for Us –

1 Kings 18:41-44 – The Bible (KJV) –  And Elijah said to Ahab, “Go, eat and drink, for there is the sound of a heavy rain.”

So Ahab went off to eat and drink, but Elijah climbed to the top of Carmel, bent down to the ground and put his face between his knees. 

“Go and look toward the sea,” he told his servant. And he went up and looked.

“There is nothing there,” he said.

Seven times Elijah said, “Go back.”

The seventh time the servant reported, “A cloud as small as a man’s hand is rising from the sea.”

So Elijah said, “Go and tell Ahab, ‘Hitch up your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.’”
