CHRIST IS... not crisis! (1 Kings 17:1-16)
What comes in your mind when you experience drought, famine, corruption, and seemingly unending suffering? These were the exact situations which took place during the reign of King Ahab in the time of Prophet Elijah. Droughts happen in every area of life, but the spiritual droughts are the worst. Crisis may come but the Lord never fails.
Amidst the tightness of budget, difficult situations and chaos around, God’s daily provision continues. God can even unlikely people in an unlikely time to be a blessing. God’s grace in our lives never runs out. His provision is not based on our performance but in obedience to His word. His Word never runs out!
During crisis, we may doubt. Seasons of drought and doubt are just that-- SEASONS. By nature they are temporary. They may be long, but they always end. Even in crisis, He is able to promote a nobody to somebody, to elevate an ordinary to extraordinary, and to change one hiding to someone shining.God jumps in to demonstrate His divine power and compassion.
God’s plans of rescue are better than anything we could think of. And each day, God’s confirmation provides word of trust, faith and hope. So trust Him and rely on Him. It doesn’t matter how desperate our situation is or how dry our land, God always brings the rain of grace, favor and blessings!
