General Information:

God proved himself to all the people of Israel. Elijah went to meet Ahab and told him to bring the 450 prophets of Baal and all the people to Mount Carmel. The prophets of Baal took one bull, killed it, cut it up, and placed it on wood on an altar without lighting the fire and then they danced and prayed to Baal all morning and half the afternoon. Elijah built his altar, put the bull he had prepared on it, and drenched it with water and prayed. God answered his prayer with fire that burned up the sacrifice, the altar and the water. Then Elijah told the people to seize the prophets of Baal and kill them. Elijah prayed for rain, and it rained very hard.
