Title: Don't Put that In My Pot
Author: Steve Wagers
Text: 2 Kings 4:38-41
According to CDC:
- 41% of Americans are obese (>100 Million)
- 9.2% are severely obese (22 Million)
- $4K/year eating out per household
- $2.4 billion/year in US
- Top 3 restaurants: McDonalds, Dominos, Taco Bell
- Most popular meal: Cheeseburger/FF/Choc shake
In a normal year, US consumes:
- 60 lbs of sugar
- 18,250 grams of fat
- 40 gallons of soft drinks
French proverb - "A good meal ought to begin with hunger."
The major problem in America is NOT physical hunger, but SPIRITUAL hungry.
We're Hungry but FOR THE WRONG THINGS
DOUBLE PORTION - 16 Miracles (2X as Elijah)
He is building a Bible College for "sons of prophets"
(38) "sitting before him" - Professor/Students
Part Waters - Widow's Debt - Shunamite's Son -EXTERNAL
Death In The Pot - INTERNAL
What the Devil Couldn't Win on the OUTSIDE of the camp, he moved to the INSIDE of the Camp.
1) A DESPERATE REALITY!
A) The CONDITION of the Day (38a)
"DEARTH" - Famine/Starvation - Dry/Desperate
Spiritually speaking - FAMINE IN OUR LAND
Churches on every corner - Bibles in every home - but the land is barren and dry of the Heavenly showers. Churches that once stood for truth/right, Christians once on fire for God have sold their soul for Fortune, Fame & Flesh.
(Amos 8:11) "...Not a famine of bread, nor thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord."
B) The CONCERN for the Day (38b)
Elisha saw the Hunger/Hopelessness - DID SOMETHING!
Problem of our day: Famine/Nobody Cares
Havner: "The situation is desperate, but we're not."
Churches are filled with BARREN ALTARS, STIFF KNEES & DRY EYES.
Christians are UNMOVED-UNTOUCHED-UNCONCERNED
EVERYONE CURSES THE DARKNESS
NO ONE SHINES THE LIGHT!
Is there anyone among us that will STAND IN THE GAP, MAKE UP THE HEDGE & RING THE PRAYER BELLS? ...
