See God's Hand All Around Me - 1 Kings 17

S - 1 Kings 17:12 But she said, “I swear by the Lord your God that I don’t have a single piece of bread in the house. And I have only a handful of flour left in the jar and a little cooking oil in the bottom of the jug. I was just gathering a few sticks to cook this last meal, and then my son and I will die.”..15 So she did as Elijah said, and she and Elijah and her family continued to eat for many days. 16 There was always enough flour and olive oil left in the containers, just as the Lord had promised through Elijah...24 Then the woman told Elijah, “Now I know for sure that you are a man of God, and that the Lord truly speaks through you.”
O - Elijah was sent by God to a widow during the famine. Everyone was hurting, including this widow would was going to cook the last meal for herself and her son when Elijah came to her. Elijah said that there would be enough food for the three of them and that it wouldn't run out, and that is just what happened. Then the woman's son die and the Lord brought him back to live and only at that point did she say she knew for sure that Elijah was a man of God.
A - There are many times around me and others that miraculous things happen, things that can only be the hand of God. However, we may discredit them and explain them away. This very well may be the hand and voice of God protecting and providing for us. I need to remain aware and alert to these types of events in my life to be more thouroughly lead by Him. I feel many times that I am waiting for that "BONG" followed by God's voice to know for sure that was Him rather than just being still and listening to His still small voice and to perceive those events that are going on around me.
P - God, you are the author and perfecter of life and I praise you this morning. I pray that you help me be aware of the signs and wonders around me that you are giving to me in a way to protect and guide me. I ask that you help me to strengthen my faith and to really see things the way that you see things and to serve and love on people the way that your son, Jesus, loved and served people. Thank you for all of the blessings that you have showered on my life and for your continued blessings and healing on my family and me.
