TEXT 1 kings 17:1-4
TOPIC : HOPE IN DIFFICULT TIMES
[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.
[2]And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,
[3]Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
[4]And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
Ravens are a set of the most intelligent birds in the sky.
They are also very smart.
It was this bird that the Lord told Elijah that He had commanded to feed him.
The ravens are also said to be perpetually hungry.
It is this animal that is constantly hungry that God commanded to feed His prophet at a very difficult time.
We serve a most powerful God. The strongest entity on the universe.
Everything becomes what He calls them.
Everything moves in the direction that He commands them.
God has decreed and commanded certain things about His children.
1. They shall be the head, not the tail.
2. They shall be for signs and wonders.
3. They shall be followed by goodness and mercy.
4. When evil men gather against them, they shall fall for their sakes.
Now, do you understand why difficult times cannot stop you.
It could not stop Abraham, Isaac or Jacob, it cannot stop you.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
