Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword. Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “So may the gods do to me and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by this time tomorrow.” Then he was afraid, and he arose and ran for his life and came to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.

Even Elijah, the man of God who was taken up into Heaven by horses and chariots of fire, (2 Kings 2:11) had his moments of doubt. Who wouldn't? She was a woman of enormous evil, powerful and vengeful.

But, as we shall see, the Spirit of the Living God is present and able to carry us through those moments of doubt.
