God had just brought down fire from heaven to prove that he was with Elijah, and to prove Israel's new false God's that he was, and always will be the only REAL TRUE GOD. This fire that God rained down burned up the sacrifices, the wood, the stones, and even the ground around the altar. WHEW!!! After that who would ever be afraid of anything? If God be for you then who can be against you?
Well, soon after God has proven himself to be with Elijah, then Jezebel threatened to kill Elijah for killing the false prophets of baal. Now, God had just shown that he was with Elijah, but due to that threat Elijah got scared and ran for his life.
How many times do we do this? God delivers us, and demonstrates himself as a ALL MIGHTY DEFENDER, and then SOON after; like tomorrow or the next week, we forget? IF HE SAVED YOU ON YOUR FORECLOSURE ON YOUR HOUSE; THEN WHY ARE YOU AFRAID THAT HE WON'T HELP YOU PAY YOUR MONTHLY BILL? Please read entire text: I King Chapters 18 and 19
