God Sent Ravens to Feed Elijah

Responses to God's Faithfulness

God is Faithful

Live in the light of God (Isaiah 2:5) 

Blessed for Faithfulness

1 Kings 17:1-9 The Message
17 And then this happened: Elijah the Tishbite, from among the settlers of Gilead, confronted Ahab: “As surely as God lives, the God of Israel before whom I stand in obedient service, the next years are going to see a total drought—not a drop of dew or rain unless I say otherwise.”
2-4, God then told Elijah, “Get out of here and fast. Head east and hide out at the Kerith Ravine on the other side of the Jordan River. You can drink fresh water from the brook; I’ve ordered the ravens to feed you.”
5-6 Elijah obeyed God’s orders. He went and camped in the Kerith canyon on the other side of the Jordan. And sure enough, ravens brought him his meals, both breakfast, and supper, and he drank from the brook.
7-9 Eventually, the brook dried up because of the drought. Then God spoke to him: “Get up and go to Zarephath in Sidon and live there. I’ve instructed a woman who lives there, a widow, to feed you.”

For Reflection

God will provide for your needs.  Will God pay for your college debt. No, probably not. However, in your spiritual endeavors, as you work in collaboration with God, God will provide and pave the way for your success. Be confident. Trust God.

Pray

Pray so that you will approach your life, engaging in the will of God and marvel at the power of God's grace.
