Let Faith Lead (4 of 7)
Series: Lessons in the Drought
Brian Mills
I Kings 18
We are four weeks into a series called Parched.
Ruth and Boaz - Redemptive Story
Josiah - Clean the House
1 Kings 17 - Recognizing the provision during the Drought
1 Kings 18- Let Faith Lead
We live in 1 Kings 18 for a couple of weeks.
As we do, let the text, the Word of God, marinate in you.
Then as you leave each week, apply what you read.
Also, remember it is not just about studying God's word but about applying.
Knowledge with no application = no results
Let the word of God come alive to you, and let's not rush through it!!
One Phrase I want to give you today - Let Faith Lead.
Remember we left Elijah last week in the middle of a 3-year drought.
God provided for him.
Then God took the provision from him and dried up the brook
And Elijah left -
When God dries up the brook, it is time to leave.
Sometimes we keep praying and wondering where God is? And what God is saying, I have dried up this spot. Time to leave.
Then he meets a Widow - who had nothing and God provided once again.
He later heals her son when he had grown sick and died.
Elijah threw himself on the boy three times and healed him.
It is like Elijah keeps hitting the rocky ground.
Have you ever been there?
Visual on stage:
Post Hole Diggers w/ a clear buckets
Put Dirt in the bottom
Rock in the middle
Dirt on top.
Dig and move dirt until you hit the rock.
That is where many are today.
Life was good until you hit rocky ground.
When you did, you stop digging -
You Gave up
You Dried Up
You Ran out of Gas
ILLU - Time you ran out of gas in your car.
My tank was empty.. (I was stuck on the side of the road)
Does anyone ever get there spiritually?
Outside you look great, but your soul is empty.
Your tank is empty!
TO MOVE in your walk with Christ, you have to know how to handle the seasons of Droughts:
I want you to ...
