Life takes turn in unique ways. In the Bible in 1Kings 17:7-16 we read the story of prophet Elijah a man of God obedient to God. Was asked to move from the place he was to a place assigned to bring word to a widow .
The story goes he set out to meet her where he found the widow gathering sticks for a last meal to eat and die as the famine set in. The prophet Elijah asks her water she provides and next bread . The widow replied I have only for my son and myself this is our last meal to eat and die . Elijah the prophet do and say and fear not.
The widow is obedient. She prepares a cake for Him first . Isn’t this amazing to expect a miracle you have to give first to God and all that you have for a greater blessing. Giving the priorities, this defies human comprehension. The widow is obedient and the Elijah said ” this is what the Lord says your Flour and oil will never run out till there is rain again. ”
For the widow her demand was life and last meal to eat . For God it’s your faithfulness and obedience to His word
One is temporal Gods is perennial.
