In the book of 1 Kings, chapter 19, Elijah found himself afraid for his life. Ahab threatened him for all that he had done to his prophets of Baal.
Elijah slept under a tree. An angel of the Lord came to him and gave him food and water, then went on a journey for forty days and nights.
Elijah hid in a cave. The Lord asked what he was doing. Elijah said he was afraid and that since he was the only one left, he might as well be killed. But God protected him.
The Lord then told Elijah to go to Damascus, and there he was to anoint Hazael king of Syria and Jehu king of Israel.
