The Gentle Whisper

Name Date

Read the Story

Jezebel sent a message to Elijah. She was going to harm him. Elijah was afraid and ran to the wilderness. He sat under a juniper tree. He told God he had had enough.

He fell asleep. An angel touched him and told him to eat. There was a cake on hot stones and a jar of water. The angel came a second time. The trip would be too hard without food. That food gave him strength for forty days. He went to Horeb, the mountain of God.

Elijah said he was the only one left who served God. God told him to stand on the mountain. A great wind tore the rocks. Then came an earthquake, then a fire. But God was not in them. Then came a still small voice. God said seven thousand in Israel had not bowed to Baal. Elijah found Elisha plowing and threw his coat on him. Elisha followed him.

Memory Verse

“After the earthquake a fire passed; but Yahweh was not in the fire. After the fire, there was a still small voice.”
