Mt. Carmel overlooks the western side of the Jezreel Valley. It is called the Rosh Kadesh which means "Holy Cape". It is described in the Bible as being both majestic and fertile. This is where Nebal, the evil husband of Abigail lived, who refused to let David's men pass through his land. Abigail risked her life to save her husband's and bless the people God blessed. In return, God rewarded her with a release from her evil husband and a new kingly husband.
Elijah challenged 450 prophets of Baal and won on this mountain.
This was also the place Elisha was when the Shunamite woman found him to come bring her son back to life.
On this mountain holy men went to be with God. You get the bigger picture when you are on a mountain overlooking cities where people look like ants. It will give you a glimpse at God's perspective and how magnificent God is. They received the power they were going to need to go down and fight the enemy whether it be an evil landowner, 450 false prophets, or death itself. It is in our prayer closet that the battle is won. When we come out it is just a matter of manifesting that power.
Lord, may we receive from you what we need to route demons and set people free.
