TOPIC: GOD, THE PROVIDER 4: PROVISION DOESN’T LAST FOR LIFE

Memory Verse: Is. 1:19
“19 If you are willing and obedient, You shall eat the good of the land;”

Bible Reading: 1 Kings 17:6-7
6 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 it happened after a while that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.”
Everything God created has an expiring date. This world has an expiring day. All human have different expiring date. The animals, birds, crippling things all has theirs. Likewise, the wealth and provision of God has an expiring date. Everything God created has this limitation for God can’t be equal with anything or any man He created, and that is why there are different seasons, Eccl. 3:1-8, Gene. 8:22. This is why we have the poor who was once rich and the rich who was once poor. That God blesses you doesn’t mean the provision can’t expire.
The brook dried off and the bird couldn’t bring bread again because the famine was three and half years. The provision of God need to be invested because the dry season of the Lord is still on the way. Whatever provision you are enjoying from the Lord, you need to guide it jealously in other to prolong it’s use. If Elijah had worked on reserving the water, keeping little behind, when the brook dried it would have sustained him, but the reverse was the case, the brook dried and there was no more water for Him to drink.
That surplus you have now, that is wasting may soon dry if you won’t prepare for the dry season. The provision of God over your life can still vanish if you won’t use it wisely and invest it. Joseph invested in the first seven years of surplus and that sustained the whole land of Egypt during the seven years of famine, Gen. 41:33-36. Hope you are using that God’s anointing wisely? Or you think that’s how it will keep rushing? God provided that job so you can invest in order to sustain you during famine. Everything dies/expires, use them wisely before they expires. May God give us wisdom to do this in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.
