"Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah: "Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. You will drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to supply you with food there." So he did what the LORD had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there. The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook."
"THE WORD OF THE LORD CAME TO ELIJAH..."
"SO HE DID WHAT THE LORD HAD TOLD HIM..."
Although the Lord's command to Elijah may not have made any sense to the carnal mind, he still obeyed!
"You will drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to supply you with food there..."
The part about drinking from the brook was easy to obey, but waiting on ravens to supply food required faith in God as the provider!
The raven's carnivorous habits, and especially his readiness to attack the eye's made the Lord's command a bit unusual & scary.
BUT NEVERTHELESS ELIJAH OBEYED!
Elijah's Faith brought about a Miraculous Relationship!
The fact that these wild creatures would actually give up their natural feeding habits at the Lord's Command & share with a human is amazing!
You would think that the ravens would have rather enjoyed the food, being they are scavengers, BUT INSTEAD THEY SHARED!
"FAITH CAN BRING ABOUT MIRACULOUS RELATIONSHIPS!"
Therefore, if you feel God tugging at your heart to do something strange today,
"DON'T QUESTION IT, JUST DO IT!"
You will be amazed at the results your obedience can bring!
"FAITH BREAKS NATURAL HABITS & FORMS NEW ONES!"
