Coloring order

Start with Elijah's arm reaching toward the sky, his brown cloak and the tall staff in his other hand.
Alternate gray and brown for the stones of the altar, and blend the flames above it from yellow into red.
Last, color the dark storm clouds and sunbeams, the crowd gathered on the left, and the faraway sea and hills.

Questions to talk about

What do you think Elijah is saying as he looks up at the sky?
What look might be on the faces of the people watching from the left?
Have you ever waited for something with all your heart? How did it feel?

Take it further

1 Kings 18 says fire fell from the sky after Elijah prayed. Tear yellow, orange and red paper into strips and glue them down to make a flame picture.

Age and time are rough guides for a child coloring alone with pencils or crayons; every child is different. The area count is an estimate counted from the line-art image.

Printing and coloring tips

Print on A4 or Letter in portrait to keep the original proportions.
Keep the finished version open beside you while you color.
Use slightly heavier paper with water-based markers so the ink shows through less.
Fill the large areas first and leave the small ones for later.
The finished version is only a suggestion. Any colors you like will work.
