Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah: "Leave here …" — 1 Kings 17:2-3a
This is how we discover God: He tells us to do something that makes no sense to the flesh (the part of us that still embraces sin or lies), we do it, and then He shows us the next step. Elijah needed to deliver his message to Ahab before he would learn any further details about the plan of God, and, ultimately, about God Himself.
God reveals Himself to us in steps. He invites us to take His hand, we take it, and He leads us through the adventure of life. The adventure is meant to be fun. God didn’t send Goliath to Israel because He wanted to terrify His people. God sent Goliath to Israel because He meant for His people to look up and see the God who towers over Goliath.

What happens when you partner with Dwight Clough Ministries?
Victims of violent crimes and survivors of abuse are finding peace,
wholeness, the power to forgive and the strength to set boundaries.
Those ensnared by addictions are finding freedom. Marriages are being
restored. Families are strengthened. Christian brothers and sisters in
restricted lands who face persecution are finding strength and
encouragement. Young believers are learning how to walk with the Lord,
and people are coming into the faith for the first time. None of this
happens as a result of one person’s efforts, but rather this is God’s
work as He blesses the sacrifice of many people including yourself. We
partner with you, with other ministries, and, most significantly, with
the Lord. That’s how the supernatural happens.
