1 Kings 18:38

Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that [was] in the trench.

Ver. 38. Then the fire of the Lord fell.] In answer to the prophet's prayer, and for the conversion of the people. Plutarch giving a reason why the Cretans pictured Jupiter without ears, saith, Non convenit ab eo audiri quenquam qui omnium sit dominus atque princeps: It is not fit that he should hear any one, who is himself lord of all. But our God taketh no such state upon him; he prepareth his people's hearts, and then causeth his ears to hear; Psa 10:17 he is near to his suppliants, and rich in mercy to those that call upon him.
