1 Kings 18:42

The LORD Sends Rain

41And Elijah said to Ahab, “Go up, eat and drink, for there is the sound of a heavy rain.”42So Ahab went up to eat and drink. But Elijah climbed to the summit of Carmel, bent down on the ground, and put his face between his knees. 43“Go and look toward the sea,” he said to his servant. So the servant went and looked, and he said, “There is nothing there.” Seven times Elijah said, “Go back.”
