BIBLE READING
1 Kings 17:1-9
1 Now Elijah the Tishbite, of Tishbe[a] in Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the Lord, the God of Israel, lives, before whom I stand, there shall be neither dew nor rain these years, except by my word.” 2 And the word of the Lord came to him: 3 “Depart from here and turn eastward and hide yourself by the brook Cherith, which is east of the Jordan. 4 You shall drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.” 5 So he went and did according to the word of the Lord. He went and lived by the brook Cherith that is east of the Jordan. 6 And the ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook. 7 And after a while the brook dried up, because there was no rain in the land.
8 Then the word of the Lord came to him, 9 “Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to feed you.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE
Today’s Bible reading tells us the story of Prophet Elijah, whom God sent to speak His word to the rebellious nation of Israel. After meeting with King Ahab and declaring famine upon the land, Elijah was forced to flee to a stream where he received provisions from God. When the stream dried up, God sent him to stay with a poor widow and her son, and the Lord miraculously provided a continual supply of food for them throughout the famine.
I studied Elijah for three years, and one notable thing I discovered about Him is embedded in this sentence, “And the word of the Lord came unto Elijah.” This shows that he was constantly in a place where he could hear God, and his heart was always ready to follow and obey God. No wonder God always showed up for him and made him the most respected prophet in the land.
My dear child, God is always with you. If you do not feel His presence, it might be because you have not cultivated a rich fellowship with Him. I pray that you will indeed become so intimate with God that you will feel His presence anywhere you go and be accustomed to hearing His voice, in Jesus’ name.
KEY POINT
God will never leave you nor forsake you.
