If God can feed Elijah by commanding wild birds to bring him food, I’m certain God can provide for my needs as well. It’s just a matter of trust; once established, changes everything. Jesus said it best, “when the Son sets you free, you are free indeed”. Free from what? The power of sin: fear, worry, anxiety, depression, etc... it’s sets us free from everything that holds us back from pursuing God, and being transformed into the likeness of Jesus. It’s what fulfills our purpose in life. Faith in God is the greatest gift we could ever possess. And to think, it’s freely given to us when we ask with the right motive.
2 Then the Lord said to Elijah, 3 “Go to the east and hide by Kerith Brook, near where it enters the Jordan River. 4 Drink from the brook and eat what the ravens bring you, for I have commanded them to bring you food.”5 So Elijah did as the Lord told him and camped beside Kerith Brook, east of the Jordan. 6 The ravens brought him bread and meat each morning and evening, and he drank from the brook.
