She went away and did as Elijah had told her. So there was food every day for Elijah and for the woman and her family.

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

Answer me, Lord, answer me, so these people will know that you, Lord, are God, and that you are turning their hearts back again.”

The power of the Lord came on Elijah and, tucking his cloak into his belt, he ran ahead of Ahab all the way to Jezreel.

Lord God my Father,

You are provider and protector, help me to find obedience to cause me to follow you and you alone. Bless my thoughts and actions so they may only serve you. Open the eyes of the lost and cause their ears to hear. Give me courage and confidence to speak your word and encourage. Allow your power to drive me as you desire.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
