  1. 1 King 17:17-24
  2. Some time later the widow’s son got sick; he got worse and worse, and finally he died. She said to Elijah, “Man of God, why did you do this to me? Did you come here to remind God of my sins and so cause my son’s death?”
  3. “Give the boy to me, ” Elijah said. He took the boy from her arms, carried him upstairs to the room where he was staying, and laid him on the bed. Then he prayed aloud, “O LORD my God, restore this child to life!” The LORD answered Elijah’s prayer; the child started breathing again and revived.
  4. Elijah took the boy back downstairs to his mother and said to her, “Look, your son is alive!”
  5. She answered, “Now, I know that you are a man of God and that the LORD really speaks through you!”
