TOPIC: GOD, THE PROVIDER 5: CHANGES CHANNELS OF PROVISION
Memory Verse: Is. 1:19
“19 If you are willing and obedient, You shall eat the good of the land;”
Bible Reading: 1 Kings 17:7-9
“7 And it happened after a while that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.
8 Then the word of the LORD came to him, saying,
9 “Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. See, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.”
God, the Provider, can never be dried of means for provision. He has the strategies and He’s so perfect in his acts and ways. Some may see Him wicked because of what they are going through but that is not whom God is. He is a loving and caring Father. The great provider for the whole universe. He changes channels of provision at will, for His children. He never closes His provisions permanently, He will always come with alternatives depending on how we’ve handled the previous provisions.
When the brook dried for Elijah, A man that stands before God, A real child of God, He led him to another channel of provision. God showed Elijah how much He cares for him, and how He, God, can’t watch him go hungry. He led him to the widow of Zarepheth, who barely struggled for surviver.
Many Christians still focusing on the dried brook. Many of us wouldn’t recognise that God is changing our channel, so we stick to the initial channel, hoping our provision is still there. When some loses their jobs or channel of provision, they often see it as the end of the road not knowing the Widow of Zarephath is still available to take good care of them than the brook and the raven. Stop knocking the door that God has locked and ask Him to show you the new channel of provision. God has change that helper of yours, stop fighting him for not helping you again. I pray for someone to understand this message better in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen. God changes channel of provision, when it’s your time may you recognise it in Jesus Precious name, Amen.
