1 Kings, Chapter 17 - The Last Handful | Prophets of Israel Daily

What happens when the prophet Elijah walks into the throne room with no credentials, no introduction, and only three words to identify himself: asher amadti lefanav—“before whom I have stood”? In 1 Kings 17, Elijah confronts Baal, disappears into the wilderness, and is eventually sent to a widow in Sidon who has only a handful of flour and a little oil left. This powerful chapter explores what it means to stand before God and trust Him when the jar still looks empty. In this chapter learn: -Elijah’s dramatic entrance and his confrontation with Baal -Asher amadti lefanav — “before whom I have stood” -What it means to know before Whom you stand -Why God sends Elijah into hiding -Elijah and the widow of Sidon -Faith when there is only a handful of flour and a little oil -The miracle of the flour and oil that do not run out -Elijah’s prayer for the widow’s son -“See—your son lives” -The deeper meaning of Elijah’s mission -Turning the hearts of fathers and children back to one another -Trusting Hashem even when the jar still looks empty 1 Kings 17 reminds us that faith does not always mean seeing abundance. Sometimes faith means looking at what little remains and trusting that Hashem is still at work. 🙏 This chapter is generously sponsored by Sarah Becker, with heartfelt gratitude for the blessing of learning the Prophets of Israel each day. 👉Try the Land of Israel Fellowship FREE Come walk this journey with us and experience our live weekly Fellowship from the Judean hills.
