"Out of the Ordinary" Creates "The Supernatural"
I Kings 17:2-4 2Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah; 3"Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. 4You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.

Meditate on: Proverbs 18:10 The name of the LORD is like a strong tower, the righteous runs into it and are safe.
In I Kings 17 we find the prophet Elijah facing an impossible situation. There was a drought and no water in the land. Because of the wickedness of King Ahab and his wife Jezebel, he told the king it would not rain for the next few years unless he commanded it. As the waters began to dry up, God gave Elijah directions that included specific instructions. He told him to turn eastward and to get out of sight at a ravine east of the Jordan. There was a brook there to provide him with water and God had already directed ravens to bring him food. Elijah's surroundings and means of survival were totally in God 's control. God gave Elijah some R & R. Not rest and relaxation but Ravine & Ravens. A ravine is a small, narrow, steep-sided valley that was formed due to erosion and not the most comfortable place to dwell. Likewise, the raven would probably not be the bird of choice for food services because it is a dirty bird that will eat things that are dead and decaying. However, God chose that which seemed to be out of the ordinary to create a supernatural experience.
This truly shows how much our father loves each of us! Although Elijah was facing the same dilemma others were experiencing, God had already made provision for his needs to be met.
He will meet our needs as well as we go through periods of adversity. For Elijah He provided a ravine for water and ravens for food and for you and I, He will provide.
Today as you take a look at your life, you may feel that there is a drought in your life. You are on a journey to health and wellness and nothing around you looks the same. You see more doctors, nurses, iv poles, needles, catheters bandages, gauze, stitches, or therapists than you ever imagined, The foods you are eating may not be the foods from your normal diet. It may not even be the foods that you enjoy. And you are drinking more water and juices than you ever imagined. Like Elisha your surroundings and survival is in God's hands. God will use what seems out of the ordinary to you to create a supernatural experience in your life!
Elijah had to take God at His word and follow through in order to receive the desired results. And you and I must do the same. God definitely knows our end from our beginning and He is in control of our lives. If he suffers a thing to be it is for our "good" and for "HIS Glory." It definitely does not feel like it is for our good all the time but we must trust God and know that it is so.
In the midst of what you're going through, God is creating a set-up for a supernatural experience for us and we must trust Him. He is aware of the sickness, infirmity or disease. God does not tempt us with evil, so we know that He is not testing us with a sickness. But, because of the Love He has for us, He will heal us from sicknesses, infirmities, or diseases. We must stand on His word, and believe God for our healing by faith. Our faith requires a corresponding action. As Elijah moved when he heard the instructions from God, we must move. God will use those things that seem out of the ordinary to us, things that seem too simple to manifest healing in our lives. Think it not strange when He uses a raven to sustain you!
I encourage you today to began to look for the supernatural experience that God is creating in your life. You may not know every scripture in the bible, you may not totally understand what's going on in your body, but beloved you can know this, "Surely, God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me." Psalm 54:4
I am a PINK and I am Living Life on PURPOSE!
