Elijah and the Fire Contest
Bible Coloring Pages
Helping kids to have fun while enjoying God's Word to it's fullest
The Idea Behind it:
This illustration deals with the recorded account that involves the prophet Elijah. Here we find the prophet challenging the false prophets of Baal, to a fire contest, on the top of Mt. Carmel. After giving the prophets of Baal a chance to prove their case (in which they failed).
Elijah called the people that were watching over to his area. And it
would be at this point, Elijah started to repair an old altar that (which was
now in ruins), had been already built, and dedicated to the Lord,
sometime ago. Nonetheless, Elijah repairs the altar, by using twelve
stones. Know that each stone, would represent, one of the twelve tribes
of Israel.
However, after doing this, Elijah began to dig a
three foot wide trench around the altar. He would dig this trench, so
that it would be able to hold twelve barrels of sea water. Next, he
would arrange the wood, and the offering, while he had the people who
were helping him, pour four large jars of water onto the wood, the
offering, and around the altar.
After all of this, Elijah would pray to the one true God: "At the
time of sacrifice, the prophet Elijah stepped forward and prayed: 'O
Lord, God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, let it be known today that you
are God in Israel and that I am your servant and have done all of these
things at your command. Answer me, O Lord, answer me, so these people
will know that you, O Lord, are God, and that you are turning their
hearts back again." -- 1 Kings 18:36,37
Then
immediately the fire fell from the heavens, as it completely brunt up
the offering, and the wood, along with the twelve stones and water, that
had surrounded the altar. After seeing this, the people fell on their
knees, and proclaimed that Elijah's God, was indeed, the One True God!

Elijah & The Fire Horse Chariot
The Idea Behind it:
This illustration was inspired by the recorded account that deals with the moment that God takes Elijah up to the heavens. Know that this will would mark the moment, in which Elijah's recorded account and ministry, would come to an end. And
from this moment forward, it would be his student Elisha that would
continue on, when it comes to being God's chosen servant, and the master
prophet.
"As they were walking along and talking, suddenly a chariot of fire appeared, drawn by horses of fire. It drove between them, separating them, and Elijah was carried by a whirlwind into heaven. Elisha saw it and cried out, 'My father! My father! The chariots and charioteers of Israel!' And as they disappeared from sight, Elisha tore his robe in two." -- 2 Kings 2:11,12

Elijah & The Fire Horse
The Idea Behind it:
This illustration is inspired by the recorded account that deals with Elijah the prophet. The moment from the account, that gave me the idea when it came to the fire horse, can be found at 2 Kings 2:11-12
This
illustration is in reference to God taking Elijah up to the heavens,
from within a whirlwind, along with fire horses and a fire horse
chariot. Now with that being stated, here we have from within
this illustration, Elijah hanging out in a field along with a fire
horse. Just another fun creative idea for the kids to color.
