The theme for the Spring 2011 Bible conference in Phoenix is found both at the beginning and end of the book (1Ti 1:18, 1Ti 6:12). In each reference, different words and phrases are used. In the first, Paul speaks of the good fight of faith as an ongoing campaign, thus reminding us that we are part of a vast and great spiritual army. In the last, his words focus on our own personal struggle, a good reminder that no one can fight our battle for us. This scope and intensity will be captured as we follow Paul’s thought through the book.Gene Cunningham - September 11, 2000
Elijah #13
God answers prayer in accordance with His will (Jam 5:13-18). To be "righteous" is to have have imputed righteousness from having believed in Christ (Jam 5:16). Our prayers are effective if they are in accordance with His word. Elisha was being faithful in his family position (1Ki 19:19-21). Elisha is introduced as Elijah's replacement and servant (2Ki 3:11). Elijah plays a role in the future (Mal 4:1-6). His work will be reconciliation of families.

Elijah's life shows us the keys to spiritual power: the power of God's Word faith prayer revival and failure.
