Today's Scripture *January 29, 2009*
1 Kings 17: 13-16
But Elijah said to her, “Don't be afraid! Go ahead and do just what you've said, but make a little bread for me first. Then use what’s left to prepare a meal for yourself and your son. For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: There will always be flour and olive oil left in your containers until the time when the Lord sends rain and the crops grow again!”
So she did as Elijah said, and she and Elijah and her son continued to eat for many days.There was always enough flour and olive oil left in the containers, just as the Lord had promised through Elijah.
When the widow of Zarephath met Elijah, she thought she was preparing her last meal. But a simple act of faith produced a miracle. She trusted Elijah and gave all she had to eat to him.
Faith is the step between promise and assurance. Miracles seem so out of reach for our feeble faith. But every miracle, large or small, begins with an act of obedience. We may not see the solution until we take the first step of faith.
Father God, we want to be known for our faith in You!
We trust You and we know that You will always provide for us.
May we step out in obedience in all areas of our lives.
Help us to take the steps needed to live a life built on faith!
In Jesus' Name, Amen
Have a blessed day in Him!
