The reign of Ahab and his wife Jezebel was a time of spiritual crisis in Israel. Ahab did what was evil in God's eyes more than all those who preceded him (1Kgs. 16:30), he worshipped Baal and the gods that caused God's heartache and Elijah, the prophet sent by God in response to Ahab and Jezebel's deeds. Elijah opposed the worship of Baal. Elijah's integrity was seen in the great mission he carried out he followed what God commanded him but God's care for him did not escape God to provide what he needed and to do that God commanded him to bring food to Elijah in his hiding place. The research method used is the analysis of biblical texts, with a descriptive approach of analysis and literature review Descriptive analysis researchers use to describe God's providence to the prophet Elijah during the drought in Israel. Today, man as God's creation often doubts God's providence and is even able to do bad things before Him to fulfill his desires. Through Elijah it can be seen that if we believe and follow what he commands, God will take care of his created life and provide for his needs

Providing accessible open educational resources (OER) is essential for users with impairments to access university resources. To achieve this, web content accessibility guidelines (WCAG) have been developed. In this study, we used the AChecker web accessibility evaluation tool to assess the content of 42 federal university websites in Nigeria and recorded their conformance level to the WCAG. The findings show that at Level A (Minimal Compliance), there were 855 known problems, 55 likely problems, and 7536 potential problems. At Level AA (Acceptable Compliance), 2516 known problems, 58 likely problems, and 15537 potential problems were identified. At Level AAA (Optimal Compliance), 2679 known problems were found, while there were no likely problems, and 16772 potential problems. The results indicated that most websites did not conform to the accessibility guidelines, highlighting the need for educational institutions to comply with WCAG2.1 content standard. The study recommends introducing accessibility training courses in web design and development to ensure effective OER creation for people with diverse abilities. Furthermore, enforcing the implementation of these guidelines by flagging down non-compliant educational websites was suggested. There is a problem of lack of accessibility in federal university websites in Nigeria, leading to unequal access to web content for users with varying abilities. The study aimed to identify aspects of the websites where accessibility needs to be improved and promote diversity and inclusiveness for users with different abilities to have equal access to web content.

If these three words are interpreted, they mean a dance that originates from understanding rakut sitelu. " ankai sitelu" is a dance work inspired by the Batak Karo kinship system, namely rakut sitelu. Rakut sitelu consists of sukut, kalimbubu, and anak beru. Sukut is the party who is the host in a traditional or ritual ceremony, kalimbubu is the party who is highly respected because he is considered to be the representative of dibata (god) on earth who gives tendi and blood, while anak beru is the party who does the sukut work in traditional ceremonies and rituals.

This work is expected to provide information about the meaning and values contained in Rakut Sitelu. Keywords: Rakut sitelu, balance, Karo Batak tradition

In terms of the ratification of Perppu Number 2 of 2022 concerning Job Creation, this raises pros and cons in society. This is because the Supreme Court Constitutional Decision Number 91 / PUU-XVIII / 2020 states that Law Number 11 of 2020 is unconstitutional conditional and must be immediately revised within 2 (two) years from the time the decision is issued. One of the reasons is because in the formation of the Job Creation Law, it does not involve full community participation and is not guided by the principle of openness. But the government actually responded by issuing the Job Creation Perppu which was later passed into law by the DPR-RI. In fact, between Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning job creation and Perppu Number 2 of 2022 concerning job creation, it is relatively the same in terms of content. This study aims to examine a legal truth related to the mechanism for ratifying Government Regulations in Lieu of Law based on actual legal provisions. One of the legal provisions in the formation of laws and regulations is to make the principle of forming laws and regulations one of the conditions that must exist in the process of forming laws. One of its principles is the principle of openness. and the method used in this study is Normative. And in the results of this study, it shows that the ratification of the Job Creation Perppu is not in accordance with the mechanism for the Establishment of Laws and Regulations because it is not guided by the principle of openness.

There was a clear mission and goal when this law was created. The goals and objectives set are not just the product of legislative ideas but rather goals and targets that can be accepted and supported by the entire community. There are several conditions, namely: these regulations must: (1) be implemented correctly (2) be enforced as intended (3) not deviate from applicable principles and (4) support community goals. This scientific work research is normative legal research (normative juridical). This study examines community involvement in drafting laws discussed in normative juridical research and using the theory of law formation according to Philipus M. Hadjon, Aan Seidman, Robert B. Seidman, and Nalin Abeyserkere, Meuwissen, and Hans Kelsen and Hans Nawiasky. The main characteristic of direct political involvement is direct interaction between citizens and decision-makers, not through representative procedures. If a community-friendly Job Creation Law is to be designed, it must undergo review. Legislative laws are formed in large part by a multitude of elements that are fundamental to both national and state life. The principles of clarity, fairness, and usefulness are usually found in laws created through community involvement and oversight. In contrast, less participatory and adaptable regulations may conflict with principles of social benefit and justice.

: This article introduces a community service conducted by the PkM ITERA team in Hanau Berak Village, Pesawaran Regency, Lampung. Nutmeg, being a primary agricultural commodity in this region, reveals an underutilized surplus of nutmeg flesh, leading to organic waste accumulation. In response to the urgent need for minimizing organic waste and elevating the economic viability of nutmeg fruit flesh, this endeavor is driven by the realization that this waste represents an overlooked potential. Nutmeg flesh possesses intrinsic qualities, notably a rich concentration of antioxidants known for their role in promoting skin health, stabilizing cardiac rhythms, mitigating insomnia, alleviating angina, enhancing digestive processes, improving blood circulation, increasing appetite, and fortifying the immune system. The proposed solution involves the creation of nutmeg-flavored tea, intended to mitigate the issue of excess nutmeg fruit waste while simultaneously augmenting the economic worth of the produced merchandise. Thus, this initiative materializes as a strategy to optimize nutmeg fruit utilization, curtail waste generation, and amplify its market value.
