Sometimes we wonder why bad things happen. The shooting at the Las Vegas concert and all the hurricanes that have left people with a loss of loved ones and without food, water, and homes.
In the Bible, Elijah faced difficult times as well. But he was a man of God. He believed and obeyed God when God told him to go Zarapheth and he would find food from a widow. When he got there the widow let him know that she didn't have a single piece of bread (see 1 Kings 17:12). But Elijah wasn't put off. He delivered God's Word: "There will always be plenty of flour and oil left in your containers until the time when the Lord sends rain and the crops grow again!" (see 1 Kings 17:14). (1) When you need it, God's provision is in place. (2) The people God uses might surprise you. (3) Our bad time is God's opportune moment. "Jehovah-jireh," which means "God will provide." God will provide, but He'll often wait till we are totally dependent on Him, before we see how He will do His work. Lord, lead our steps in every action and especially when we are lost and afraid. In this troubled world, help us to lean on You and follow the narrow path that leads to You. This I ask in Jesus' Name. Amen. |
