1. During the third year that no rain fell, the Lord said to Elijah, “Go meet with King Ahab, and I will make it rain.”
2. So Elijah went to meet with Ahab. The famine was very bad in Samaria.
3. So King Ahab told Obadiah to come to him. Obadiah was the man in charge of the king’s palace. (Obadiah was a true follower of the Lord.
4. One time when Jezebel was killing all the Lord’S prophets, Obadiah hid 100 prophets in two caves. He put 50 prophets in one cave and 50 prophets in another cave. Then he brought them food and water.)
5. King Ahab said to Obadiah, “Come with me. We will look at every spring and every stream in the land. We will see if we can find enough grass to keep our horses and mules alive. Then we will not have to kill our animals.”
6. They decided where each of them would go to look for water. Ahab went in one direction by himself, and Obadiah went in another direction by himself.
