Micah gives the time of writing as “in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah,” (Mic 1:1). This places his ministry from about 740 to 710 B.C. This book of his prophecies was likely compiled around 700 B.C. He was a contemporary of the prophet Isaiah. His name is a shortened form of “Micaiah” (cf. 1Ki 22:8–28, another prophet), meaning “Who is like Jehovah.”

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.
