Honestly, I thank God that he spoke to me, and thank God for the wisdom to redirect him.<!--more--> This is why gossip is so, so horrible. Imagine if he had spoken to someone else, and the person says, &#8220;I too have observed these things you are talking about. I just chose to be quiet, but now I will say what is on my mind.&#8221; Stop talking to just anyone and connect to the wisdom of Heaven. What is God saying? Until you can answer honestly, be determined to wait for His voice.<\/p>\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/1KI.18.41-44.NLT\">1 Kings 18:41-44<\/a>, we see the threefold dynamic of the king, the prophet, and the priesthood. It may seem like the king\u2019s only function is to eat and drink. But that is not correct, he is playing a key role. The Prophet is just sitting there with his head on his knees, acting like he is very spiritual, praying. Then the priesthood is very active, going back and forth. As Believers, the first thing we need to understand is that there are different dynamics at play. Secondly, when it comes to our lives, we are the embodiment of the three \u2013 kingship, the prophetic, and the priesthood. In your life, you have to eat and drink, you have to put your head down to pray, and you have to perform your priesthood duties.<\/p>\n<p>If all you want to do is eat and drink, there will be trouble. If you just want to keep praying and praying, there will be trouble. If all you want to do is run up and down looking here and there, you will discover that going up and down doesn&#8217;t lead to anything. You need to connect to the three. You engage the prophetic, you pray until the rain drenches you and the thunderstorms come. You check for the cloud; you do the things you need to do in performing the priestly duties. And guess what? You still get to eat and drink when it is all said and done. So, it is a combination of all three for us believers, and that is the powerful key here for us.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/59\/1KI.18.44.ESV\">1 Kings 18:<sup>44<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0\u201c\u2026<em>Elijah told the servant, \u201cGo tell King Ahab to get his chariot ready and <strong><u>go home<\/u><\/strong> now. If he does not leave now, the rain will stop him<\/em>.\u201d (ERV, emphasis added). Home here is so significant. In fact, \u201c<strong><em><u>go home<\/u><\/em><\/strong>\u201d can be a teaching series by itself. But we will look at a few key things. The first implication of \u201c<strong><em><u>go home<\/u><\/em><\/strong>\u201d is <strong>Repent<\/strong>. Repentance is so powerful because <em>the hand of the Lord is not shortened that He cannot save, neither is His ear blocked that He cannot hear<\/em>. The Bible says, <em>Your sins that have separated you from your God<\/em>. Sin is a problem at any time for anybody. The answer and the solution to it is repent!
