"Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan." — 1 Kings 17:3
God is practical. He steps into our lives as they really are. The stuff of God’s leading consists of parking places and apple pies, of budget line items and a walk along the beach. In this passage, God’s leading to Elijah consisted of directions and a destination, of protection and a plan.
God’s leading in the practical matters of this life give us reasonable hope that He will continue to be the same God who leads us into all His promises that we cannot yet see.
Be encouraged!
