“ Biblical principles ”
Reverend Wesley Graham presents a series of Biblical principles in this touching message about God's intervention in the life of the prophet Elijah after he ran for his life and then hid in a cave. First, God is sovereign and knows where Man is at every single moment. Second, Man has the capacity to think and the responsibility to make decisions about what to do and where to go. Third, Man can become fearful, take his eyes off God, get distracted, and land himself and other people out of the will of God if he is not careful (i.e. prayerful). Nevertheless, when Man runs for his life and lands himself in a tight spot, God mercifully pursues him, kindly gives him something to eat, tenderly speaks to him, privately gives him some specific directions and instructions, and then marvelously restores him in truth and righteousness, if he is willing to be still, listen, trust and obey. Clearly, God is good and irresistible in his love and grace. Clearly, if you should ever find yourself in a cave situation one day, be sure to pray and wait upon the LORD GOD JEHOVAH for further instructions, especially before venturing out into the wilderness. |
