1 Kings 17:8-24 ~ Do not fear

When Jesus went into the wilderness to pray, the world had beautiful night skies.  The Journey of Prayer is to find the Joy Jesus describes finding in Life. John describes seeing Jesus find Joy as Grace upon Grace. The Gospel of Mark finds this journey in the wilderness finding straight paths.



1 Kings 17:8-24


8 Then the word of the Lord came to him, 9 “Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to feed you.” 

10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, a widow was there gathering sticks. And he called to her and said, “Bring me a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.” 11 And as she was going to bring it, he called to her and said, “Bring me a morsel of bread in your hand.” 

12 And she said, “As the Lord your God lives, I have nothing baked, only a handful of flour in a jar and a little oil in a jug. And now I am gathering a couple of sticks that I may go in and prepare it for myself and my son, that we may eat it and die.” 

13 And Elijah said to her, “Do not fear; go and do as you have said. But first make me a little cake of it and bring it to me, and afterward make something for yourself and your son. 14 For thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘The jar of flour shall not be spent, and the jug of oil shall not be empty, until the day that the Lord sends rain upon the earth.’” 

15 And she went and did as Elijah said. And she and he and her household ate for many days. 16 The jar of flour was not spent, neither did the jug of oil become empty, according to the word of the Lord that he spoke by Elijah.

17 After this the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, became ill. And his illness was so severe that there was no breath left in him. 

18 And she said to Elijah, “What have you against me, O man of God? You have come to me to bring my sin to remembrance and to cause the death of my son!” 

19 And he said to her, “Give me your son.” And he took him from her arms and carried him up into the upper chamber where he lodged, and laid him on his own bed. 20 And he cried to the Lord, “O Lord my God, have you brought calamity even upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by killing her son?” 

21 Then he stretched himself upon the child three times and cried to the Lord, “O Lord my God, let this child's life come into him again.” 

22 And the Lord listened to the voice of Elijah. And the life of the child came into him again, and he revived. 23 And Elijah took the child and brought him down from the upper chamber into the house and delivered him to his mother. 

And Elijah said, “See, your son lives.” 

24 And the woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a man of God, and that the word of the Lord in your mouth is truth.”





This year has been one of unexpected journeys. Changes. Disappointments. Great Stress.

The word proves true in this passage. With news being much more quick to publish, we have all types of examples of people donating organs who begin to come to life, even after rigor mortis and dark, dark liver mortis. Impossible life.

Infants born without any sign of life are wept and held against their mother's warm skin and life, for reasons known to God Himself, come to life again. We are the generation who recognize 1 Kings 17. These babies we can find easily are: Yasmin Gomes, Rose Servin, James Engstrom, Logan Carroll, Ella Claxton, Robin Cyr, Jacob Tomkin, David Ring, Mary Ellen James.

Days when something fabulous happens - Occur. 
We live knowing God will bring these days in all the lives of believers of Jesus Christ. We pray for sooner rather than later.











In the Days of Waiting on the Lord our Father God.
When we start placing our prayers suddenly, it's far from unusual for all the circumstances to move wildly about before settling on the Compass direction North. I'd suppose this defense-filled feeling of attack, is a lot like being in the boat with Jesus.

Romans 5:5
And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.


Abba,

I have trusted in Your loving devotion; my heart will rejoice in Your salvation.
Psalm 13:5

Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will dwell securely.
Psalm 16:9

Thank You, Father God, for the ending verses in Psalm 90. Joy is important.
Dwell in us. Help us find You first.

I'm so glad my son Alexander has helped my older son. 
I pray they always help each other. Grown men and brothers helping one another. Thank You. 
His Steadfast Love, Jesus, we ask bring into our loved one's lives.



We Pray for us all to Live in Peace Worldwide.
We ask for Liberty and Justice for All.

We pray for those suffering from Hurricanes Overcome.
We pray the fires of the Northwest to cease and for the people to Overcome.
Thank You, the skies in San Francisco have been so blue.

We ask in the Name of Jesus
for this Virus to end, we see it weakening.
We pray for those in travel for safety.
We ask the vaccine is found.

Thank You, Father God, for All we are Blessed With.
Even the Blessings we don't see.
The Blessings of God, we will recognize.

Jesus help us in this Nation to be in Your Word and see more Joy.
We pray God's Blessing on the Leaders of this Nation.

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
