BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 4-6

FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Kings 17:8-15 (KJV)

8 And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,

9 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.

10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.

11 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.

12 And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.

13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

14 For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.

15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.

MEMORY VERSE: “And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.” – Genesis 22:10

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
No one has ever become poor by giving.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
I PROPHESY THAT GOD SHALL GIVE YOU A LIBERAL HEART AND MAKE YOU FLOURISH, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

The MESSAGE:

There is a mystery that many believers do not understand. It is to know God through giving. The evidence of your total submission to God is measured by your giving.

Your giving shows your love for God. Many claim to know God but do nothing to further His Kingdom. Some people cherish their possession and what they have received more than the Giver. Abraham in our Memory Verse wanted to sacrifice his only son because God asked for him.

God is interested in what we give and He is equally interested in what we do with what remains after we have given. How do you show that you know God through your giving? By the generosity of your giving, of course.

You appreciate God as a GIVER of every good and perfect gift (James 1:17) through your giving. When you give, it shows that you trust God to provide for you. One of the reasons why people are stingy towards God and others is fear. Fear does not recognise God, but faith shows that you know that God did it and that He will do it again. We have the example of the widow of Zarephath.

God was concerned about the needs and misery of the poor widow. In fact, God sent Elijah to encourage her faith and give her some material blessings when she gave her last meal. Not many people can do this but this widow clearly showed that to offer all is nothing to her.

God was her All in All and her Sufficiency, even when it looked like all hope was lost (1 Kings 17:2). Because of her faith in God, she was willing to exchange certainty for uncertainty. Beloved, do you know God? Are you willing to show that God is paramount in your life? Then give your all.
