And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 9 is found in chapter 19 of 1 Kings. Elijah reaches Horeb and enters a cave. God asks him what he is doing there, and the prophet expresses his perception of abandonment and failure. The divine response begins with wind, earthquake, and fire, but the Lord is not simply identified with these phenomena; afterward comes a gentle sound, and Elijah hears the question again. The scene shifts expectations from spectacular manifestation toward a deeper experience of divine presence.
