Elijah was a great man of God. Dedicated to serve to the end of life. In the Book of first Kings , chapter 19 we have a story of defeat and fright by this wonderful servant of God. However, after killing many of Queen Jezebel’s false prophets, Elijah was weary and tired. So would you if you had to face the enemy of such magnitude.
Elijah ran to hiding after he got the bad message from the Queen that he would be dead by day’s end. He ran, for his life not remembering that the God who helped him to kill all these false prophets is still the God who never lost a battle over His enemies. However, when one is spent, tired, feels defeated and afraid, anything negative is always in the mind. How is it with you today? What is causing your defeat or making you afraid? For me it’s always finances especially when I see each month bills to be paid and not enough funds to clear them. I feel then quite defeated! What do I do then? Call on the God who is always on time and is a Provider for His children. You should too.
God the Merciful One came to feed and refresh His servant Elijah. Cake, water and sleep was the remedy this for fearful and defeated Man of God! God knows our frame how weak and frightened we are and is always ready to rescue us. He wants us to trust and never be afraid. God is Jehovah Sabaoth (Warrior King) who fights even when we cannot see or even appreciate the many scrapes He deliver us from. Elijah was fed, watered, rested, and gained full strength to continue the wonderful work for the Lord. Have you been over exerted to the loss of your strength, power, focus and commitment? Call on the Lord for your restoration. The devil is a thief and liar who tries to lead us off course with various types of Jezebell acts. Don’t allow him to cast you under the bus, call on others to pray for you that your faith remains pure and true. You brother, you sister are never alone, Jesus the Christ is always with you even to death. ( Hebrews 13: 5).
Today, walk true with your God, for the enemy will NOT over power you unless you let him. Repent, and seek your Lord for your restoration and grace in your times of needs. Rejoice and be glad as you serve Him, keep believing for victory.
