Elijah called them to be faithful to the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel.
Malachi 3:23 says that God will send Elijah before "the day of the Lord".

Elijah Wood played Frodo Baggins in Lord of the Rings.
Alijah is an alternate spelling of the boy's name Elijah, of American origin, meaning 'the Lord is my god'.
The widow believed the promise of God through Elijah that she would have sufficient food and not starve to death if she shared her remaining food with the prophet. Elijah had said to her (1 Kings 17:14-16): 14For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.15And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. 16And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah. She also showed faith by believing that God had used Elijah to raise her son back to life.
Elijah didn't have the power to call down fire. No one does but God made in so because Elijah used it to witness to the pagans.1 Kings 18: 36/37"At the time of sacrifice, the prophet Elijah stepped forward and prayed: "O LORD, God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant and have done all these things at your command. Answer me, O LORD, answer me, so these people will know that you, O LORD, are God, and that you are turning their hearts back again."Based on this passage out of 1 Kings, it seems like God asked Elijah to do this, but we may not know for sure.As for 2nd Kings chapter 1 when Elijah calls down fire to consume the captain and the 50 men (twice), he may not have had permission but God did not have to send fire if he did not want to. So really, we have no idea if he had permission or not BUT it was still up to God whether to send the fire or not.
In the Bible 1 Kings 19:11-13 (New International Version (NIV) it says the following:Verse 11.) The LORD said, "Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the LORD, for the LORD is about to pass by."Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake.Verse 12.) After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper.Verse 13.) When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Then a voice said to him, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"The Bible does not say "Sometimes God whispers" in so many words, but it records that He did whisper to Elijah.
No. Neither Elijah nor Elisha was a fighter. They were prophets of the Lord.
1Kings:17:1: And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.
