1 Kings 19 [4-8] Elijah didn't really want to die, he was just exhausted from the head to heads with the prophets of Baal and in need of some reprieve and replenishing. [9-10 & 14] God is not offended by our vexation and verbal diarrhoea [15-16] God doesn't let Elijah wallow in his despair, but gave him a new mission, a new purpose. [18] To encourage him, God reminded Elijah that he wasn't alone in his faithfulness.
