00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:14.859
 1 Kings 17 starting at verse 1. I haven't got a page number. Thank you. 358.

00:00:14.859 --> 00:00:33.620
 So if you've missed any of the talks from chapters 1 to 16, they're all on the website and we head back into it.

00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:37.799
 Now let's hear God's word to us this morning.

00:00:38.579 --> 00:00:43.560
 Now Elijah the Tishbite from Tishbe in Gilead said to Ahab,

00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:54.140
 As the Lord the God of Israel lives, whom I serve, there will neither be dew nor rain in the next few years except at my word.

00:00:55.020 --> 00:00:58.020
 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah.

00:00:58.859 --> 00:01:03.420
 Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kareth ravine east of the Jordan.

00:01:04.219 --> 00:01:09.240
 You will drink from the brook and I have instructed the ravens to supply you with food there.

00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:15.439
 So he did what the Lord had told him. He went to the Kareth ravine east of the Jordan and stayed there.

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:20.319
 The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening.

00:01:20.839 --> 00:01:22.780
 And he drank from the brook.

00:01:23.899 --> 00:01:28.179
 Sometime later the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land.

00:01:28.780 --> 00:01:30.719
 Then the word of the Lord came to him.

00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:35.359
 Go at once to Zarephath in the region of Sidon and stay there.

00:01:35.939 --> 00:01:39.659
 I have instructed a widow there to supply you with food.

00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:47.039
 So he went to Zarephath and he came to the town gate and a widow was there who was gathering sticks.

00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:49.420
 He called to her and asked,

00:01:49.780 --> 00:01:53.519
 Would you bring me a little water in a jar so I may have a drink?

00:01:54.460 --> 00:01:56.379
 As she was going to get it he called,

00:01:56.379 --> 00:01:59.979
 And bring me please a piece of bread.

00:02:01.299 --> 00:02:04.519
 As surely as the Lord your God lives, she replied,

00:02:05.119 --> 00:02:10.460
 I don't have any bread, only a handful of flour in a jar and a little olive oil in a jug.

00:02:11.079 --> 00:02:15.939
 I am gathering a few sticks to take home and make a meal for myself and my son,

00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:18.879
 that we may eat it and die.

00:02:20.419 --> 00:02:21.639
 Elijah said to her,

00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:23.819
 Don't be afraid.

00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:27.339
 Go home and do as you have said.

00:02:27.819 --> 00:02:32.179
 But first make a small loaf of bread for me from what you have and bring it to me.

00:02:32.659 --> 00:02:35.199
 And then make something for yourself and your son.

00:02:36.179 --> 00:02:39.019
 For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says.

00:02:39.839 --> 00:02:44.459
 The jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not run dry

00:02:44.459 --> 00:02:47.119
 until the day the Lord sends rain on the land.

00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:51.439
 She went away and did as Elijah had told her.

00:02:52.239 --> 00:02:56.419
 So there was food every day for Elijah and for the woman and her family.

00:02:57.019 --> 00:03:01.199
 For the jar of flour was not used up and the jug of oil did not run dry

00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:06.519
 in keeping with the word the Lord spoken by Elijah.

00:03:08.279 --> 00:03:11.560
 Sometime later the son of the woman who owned the house became ill.

00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:16.000
 He grew worse and worse and finally stopped breathing.

00:03:17.099 --> 00:03:18.560
 She said to Elijah,

00:03:19.179 --> 00:03:21.359
 What do you have against me, man of God?

00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:25.119
 Did you come to remind me of my sin and kill my son?

00:03:27.299 --> 00:03:30.000
 Give me your son, Elijah replied.

00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:32.539
 He took him from her arms,

00:03:33.419 --> 00:03:35.839
 carried him to the upper room where he was staying,

00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:38.199
 and laid him on his bed.

00:03:39.419 --> 00:03:41.219
 Then he cried out to the Lord,

00:03:41.219 --> 00:03:49.840
 Lord, my God, have you brought tragedy even on this widow I am staying with by causing her son to die?

00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:57.319
 Then he stretched himself out on the boy three times and cried out to the Lord.

00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:02.599
 Lord, my God, let this boy's life return to him.

00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:11.780
 The Lord heard Elijah's cry and the boy's life returned to him and he lived.

00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:17.199
 Elijah picked the child and carried him down from the room into the house.

00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:20.079
 He gave him to his mother and said,

00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:22.819
 Look, your son is alive.

00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:25.939
 Then the woman said to Elijah,

00:04:26.439 --> 00:04:31.039
 Now I know that you are a man of God

00:04:31.039 --> 00:04:36.879
 and that the word of the Lord from your mouth is the truth.

00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:39.680
 Let's pray.

00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:50.459
 Lord God, you have spoken your word

00:04:50.459 --> 00:04:56.420
 and you have caused it to be written down.

00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:03.800
 And we have heard your word afresh this morning.

00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:10.939
 And we pray that this word would speak into our lives.

00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:15.280
 That we may have confidence

00:05:15.280 --> 00:05:19.420
 and know that you are the truth.

00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:21.879
 Amen.

00:05:27.980 --> 00:05:29.480
 Well, let me ask you,

00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:34.660
 this book that I am holding in my hands

00:05:34.660 --> 00:05:38.140
 and I hope you have one beside you

00:05:38.140 --> 00:05:40.180
 or with you.

00:05:40.300 --> 00:05:42.780
 Do you have confidence in this book?

00:05:43.980 --> 00:05:44.520
 Do you?

00:05:45.660 --> 00:05:51.640
 Do you trust that the words written in this book are the truth?

00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:55.560
 Do you believe

00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:59.159
 that God's word that we are looking at

00:05:59.159 --> 00:06:01.019
 and listening at this morning

00:06:01.019 --> 00:06:04.060
 can give you life today

00:06:04.060 --> 00:06:07.279
 and life for all eternity?

00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:10.539
 Do you have confidence

00:06:10.539 --> 00:06:12.879
 in this book?

00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:17.100
 You see, we live in a culture

00:06:17.100 --> 00:06:21.100
 where God's word is being silenced.

00:06:21.719 --> 00:06:23.000
 We're told the Bible,

00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:24.860
 this book is irrelevant,

00:06:25.159 --> 00:06:26.079
 it's outdated,

00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:27.079
 it's backward,

00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:28.480
 it's regressive.

00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:31.360
 We've grown up as a nation,

00:06:31.540 --> 00:06:32.939
 we've now moved on,

00:06:33.300 --> 00:06:35.040
 we can think for ourselves,

00:06:35.259 --> 00:06:37.540
 we can live as we please.

00:06:37.540 --> 00:06:40.760
 the last thing we need to hear today

00:06:40.760 --> 00:06:43.020
 is God's word.

00:06:45.500 --> 00:06:48.360
 You see, it's hard to have confidence

00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:50.340
 in God's word

00:06:50.340 --> 00:06:53.500
 when it is continually being trashed

00:06:53.500 --> 00:06:55.200
 and undermined.

00:06:55.860 --> 00:06:57.540
 And this continuous voice

00:06:58.200 --> 00:06:59.180
 that tells us

00:06:59.180 --> 00:07:01.520
 we don't need God anymore

00:07:01.520 --> 00:07:05.060
 filters into our lives

00:07:05.060 --> 00:07:05.839
 and, well,

00:07:06.339 --> 00:07:08.199
 we can maybe begin to doubt

00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:09.660
 that this book

00:07:09.660 --> 00:07:12.920
 is little more than just

00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:14.540
 words

00:07:14.540 --> 00:07:17.240
 and of no value to us.

00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:19.660
 And maybe we've gotten

00:07:19.660 --> 00:07:21.100
 to the point in our lives

00:07:21.100 --> 00:07:21.500
 where

00:07:21.500 --> 00:07:23.540
 we don't actually bother

00:07:23.540 --> 00:07:24.720
 reading it anymore

00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:25.639
 because, well,

00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:27.980
 nobody else does.

00:07:29.060 --> 00:07:30.879
 And why should we believe it?

00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:36.699
 But this is really nothing new.

00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:38.719
 Look at our text

00:07:38.719 --> 00:07:40.699
 that we read this morning.

00:07:41.779 --> 00:07:43.560
 God's people have suffered

00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:46.199
 one bad king after another.

00:07:47.100 --> 00:07:48.139
 And when we think

00:07:48.139 --> 00:07:49.560
 it can get no worse,

00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:52.899
 we are introduced to Ahab.

00:07:53.339 --> 00:07:54.540
 Just go back to

00:07:54.540 --> 00:07:56.980
 the end of chapter 16,

00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:58.180
 verse 30.

00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:03.439
 Chapter 16,

00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:04.259
 verse 30.

00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:07.579
 Ahab, son of Omri,

00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:09.079
 did more evil

00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:10.899
 in the eyes of the Lord

00:08:10.899 --> 00:08:12.279
 than any of the kings

00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:13.139
 before him.

00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:15.459
 He not only considered it

00:08:15.459 --> 00:08:17.180
 trivial to commit the sins

00:08:17.180 --> 00:08:18.139
 of Jeroboam,

00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:19.060
 son of Nebat,

00:08:19.159 --> 00:08:20.620
 he was one who had set up

00:08:20.620 --> 00:08:22.079
 a golden calf,

00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:25.079
 he also married Jezebel,

00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:27.620
 daughter of Ephbaal,

00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:29.459
 king of the Sidonians,

00:08:29.459 --> 00:08:31.639
 and began to serve Baal

00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:33.179
 and worship him.

00:08:35.259 --> 00:08:36.860
 Not only did Ahab

00:08:36.860 --> 00:08:38.379
 turn away from God,

00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:41.159
 but he replaced God

00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:42.360
 with his own gods.

00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:43.740
 In other words,

00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:46.620
 he tried to keep God's voice

00:08:46.620 --> 00:08:48.379
 from being heard.

00:08:50.299 --> 00:08:51.939
 But God is not going

00:08:51.939 --> 00:08:52.939
 to be silenced.

00:08:53.740 --> 00:08:55.360
 He will not be gagged.

00:08:55.740 --> 00:08:56.980
 He still speaks

00:08:56.980 --> 00:08:59.100
 with authority and power.

00:08:59.100 --> 00:09:00.340
 In fact,

00:09:01.180 --> 00:09:02.920
 God wants us to know

00:09:02.920 --> 00:09:03.920
 that we can have

00:09:03.920 --> 00:09:05.659
 absolute confidence

00:09:05.659 --> 00:09:08.480
 in God's word.

00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:11.720
 Just like the widow

00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:13.659
 we met in this account.

00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:15.039
 Look at verse 24.

00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:17.039
 Then the woman said,

00:09:17.159 --> 00:09:18.379
 of chapter 17,

00:09:18.500 --> 00:09:19.180
 verse 24,

00:09:19.179 --> 00:09:20.819
 Then the woman said

00:09:20.819 --> 00:09:21.500
 to Elijah,

00:09:21.879 --> 00:09:22.919
 Now I know

00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:23.639
 that you are

00:09:23.639 --> 00:09:24.679
 a man of God

00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:26.519
 and that the word

00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:27.479
 of the Lord

00:09:27.479 --> 00:09:28.659
 from your mouth

00:09:28.659 --> 00:09:30.879
 is the truth.

00:09:31.879 --> 00:09:33.399
 So through this text

00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:34.659
 of chapter 17,

00:09:34.879 --> 00:09:36.099
 we're going to see

00:09:36.099 --> 00:09:37.299
 four reasons

00:09:37.299 --> 00:09:39.039
 why we can have

00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:40.659
 absolute confidence

00:09:40.659 --> 00:09:43.500
 and absolute assurance

00:09:43.500 --> 00:09:45.359
 in God's word.

00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:47.159
 First,

00:09:47.899 --> 00:09:50.440
 God rules all things

00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:52.060
 by the power

00:09:52.060 --> 00:09:53.639
 of his word.

00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:56.419
 Chapter 16,

00:09:56.580 --> 00:09:57.800
 verse 33.

00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:00.800
 Ahab also made

00:10:00.800 --> 00:10:02.060
 an Asherah pole,

00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:04.120
 another god,

00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:04.820
 and did more

00:10:04.820 --> 00:10:06.240
 to arouse the anger

00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:07.139
 of the Lord,

00:10:07.259 --> 00:10:08.360
 the God of Israel,

00:10:08.860 --> 00:10:10.720
 than did all the kings

00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:12.240
 of Israel before him.

00:10:12.899 --> 00:10:13.920
 It sounds a fairly

00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:15.259
 bleak situation.

00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:17.559
 Ahab might be doing

00:10:17.559 --> 00:10:19.579
 his best to shut God up,

00:10:20.139 --> 00:10:21.719
 but God is not

00:10:21.719 --> 00:10:23.019
 going to be silenced.

00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:25.099
 So chapter 17,

00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:25.799
 verse 1.

00:10:26.319 --> 00:10:27.599
 Now Elijah,

00:10:27.860 --> 00:10:28.759
 the Tishbite

00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:30.439
 from Tishbe in Gilead,

00:10:30.740 --> 00:10:31.919
 said to Ahab,

00:10:32.659 --> 00:10:33.679
 Well, who's Elijah?

00:10:35.139 --> 00:10:36.679
 And where's Tishbe?

00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:38.059
 Who is this guy?

00:10:38.860 --> 00:10:39.779
 Well, who he is

00:10:39.779 --> 00:10:41.459
 and where he comes from

00:10:41.459 --> 00:10:42.719
 is not important.

00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:44.759
 Rather,

00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:46.139
 what he has to say

00:10:46.139 --> 00:10:47.099
 is important

00:10:47.099 --> 00:10:48.240
 because Elijah

00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:49.279
 is speaking

00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:51.279
 on behalf of God.

00:10:52.199 --> 00:10:52.559
 Again,

00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:53.379
 look at verse 1.

00:10:53.459 --> 00:10:54.240
 As the Lord,

00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:55.679
 the God of Israel,

00:10:55.779 --> 00:10:57.139
 lives whom I serve,

00:10:57.919 --> 00:10:58.439
 there will be

00:10:58.439 --> 00:10:59.399
 neither dew

00:10:59.399 --> 00:11:00.159
 nor rain

00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:01.679
 in the next few years

00:11:01.679 --> 00:11:02.399
 except

00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:04.059
 at my word.

00:11:05.339 --> 00:11:06.759
 And just like that,

00:11:07.899 --> 00:11:08.799
 the rains

00:11:08.799 --> 00:11:10.039
 stopped.

00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:11.360
 drought

00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:12.679
 and famine

00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:14.459
 across the land.

00:11:15.259 --> 00:11:16.240
 God is sending

00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:17.759
 a very clear message.

00:11:18.199 --> 00:11:18.719
 Ahab,

00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:20.439
 it's not you

00:11:20.439 --> 00:11:21.199
 who rules

00:11:21.199 --> 00:11:22.259
 with your gods.

00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:24.259
 I rule

00:11:24.259 --> 00:11:26.559
 by my powerful word.

00:11:27.419 --> 00:11:27.839
 You see,

00:11:27.919 --> 00:11:29.099
 Ahab's new god

00:11:29.099 --> 00:11:30.059
 called Baal

00:11:30.059 --> 00:11:31.599
 was in fact,

00:11:31.980 --> 00:11:32.860
 or so called,

00:11:32.980 --> 00:11:34.159
 the god of the weather.

00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:35.860
 the one who was

00:11:35.860 --> 00:11:37.240
 supposedly in charge

00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:37.879
 of the rain

00:11:37.879 --> 00:11:38.620
 and the sunshine.

00:11:39.539 --> 00:11:40.339
 So why would you

00:11:40.339 --> 00:11:41.120
 listen to God

00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:41.740
 when you've got

00:11:41.740 --> 00:11:42.439
 your own god,

00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:42.819
 Baal,

00:11:42.980 --> 00:11:43.919
 who controls

00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:44.480
 the weather?

00:11:46.579 --> 00:11:47.139
 Well,

00:11:47.179 --> 00:11:48.339
 in just a word,

00:11:49.259 --> 00:11:49.819
 Ahab

00:11:49.819 --> 00:11:51.279
 and his gods

00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:52.659
 are silenced.

00:11:53.719 --> 00:11:54.439
 You see,

00:11:54.519 --> 00:11:55.199
 we can't

00:11:55.199 --> 00:11:55.740
 shut

00:11:55.740 --> 00:11:56.819
 God up.

00:11:57.539 --> 00:11:58.259
 His words

00:11:58.259 --> 00:11:59.459
 are powerful

00:11:59.460 --> 00:12:00.740
 and effective.

00:12:01.379 --> 00:12:02.440
 Not only did God

00:12:02.440 --> 00:12:03.660
 create the universe

00:12:03.660 --> 00:12:04.700
 by his word,

00:12:04.820 --> 00:12:06.120
 but he sustains

00:12:06.120 --> 00:12:07.160
 all things

00:12:07.160 --> 00:12:08.080
 by his word.

00:12:08.540 --> 00:12:09.340
 Just as we

00:12:09.340 --> 00:12:10.580
 turn a tap off,

00:12:11.340 --> 00:12:12.019
 so God

00:12:12.019 --> 00:12:13.100
 by his word

00:12:13.100 --> 00:12:14.280
 can turn

00:12:14.280 --> 00:12:15.019
 the rain off.

00:12:15.700 --> 00:12:16.720
 And just as we

00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:17.740
 flick the switch

00:12:17.740 --> 00:12:18.700
 and turn the lights

00:12:18.700 --> 00:12:19.080
 on,

00:12:19.540 --> 00:12:20.160
 so God

00:12:20.160 --> 00:12:21.340
 by his word

00:12:21.340 --> 00:12:23.200
 causes the sun

00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:24.220
 to shine.

00:12:26.420 --> 00:12:27.340
 His word

00:12:27.340 --> 00:12:28.139
 is powerful

00:12:28.139 --> 00:12:29.919
 and effective.

00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:32.199
 But

00:12:32.199 --> 00:12:33.259
 not

00:12:33.259 --> 00:12:33.899
 hearing

00:12:33.899 --> 00:12:35.059
 God's voice

00:12:35.059 --> 00:12:35.779
 or not

00:12:35.779 --> 00:12:37.000
 hearing his word

00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:38.539
 is very,

00:12:38.679 --> 00:12:39.580
 very dangerous.

00:12:40.259 --> 00:12:40.659
 Look at

00:12:40.659 --> 00:12:41.299
 verse 2.

00:12:42.699 --> 00:12:43.240
 Then the

00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:43.759
 word

00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:44.699
 of the Lord

00:12:44.699 --> 00:12:45.720
 came to Elijah.

00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:47.319
 Leave here,

00:12:47.759 --> 00:12:48.679
 turn eastward

00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:49.279
 and hide

00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:49.639
 in the

00:12:49.639 --> 00:12:50.419
 Kareth ravine

00:12:50.419 --> 00:12:51.159
 east of the

00:12:51.159 --> 00:12:51.500
 Jordan.

00:12:52.700 --> 00:12:53.039
 You see

00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:53.720
 what's happening?

00:12:54.220 --> 00:12:55.340
 God speaks

00:12:55.340 --> 00:12:56.220
 through Elijah

00:12:56.220 --> 00:12:57.800
 and then

00:12:57.800 --> 00:12:58.879
 God removes

00:12:58.879 --> 00:12:59.540
 Elijah.

00:12:59.840 --> 00:13:00.720
 The very one

00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:01.580
 who's speaking

00:13:01.580 --> 00:13:02.680
 God's words

00:13:02.680 --> 00:13:03.420
 to the king

00:13:03.420 --> 00:13:04.399
 and to the people

00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:05.259
 is suddenly

00:13:05.259 --> 00:13:06.000
 taken out

00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:06.920
 of the situation.

00:13:08.060 --> 00:13:09.060
 Now God

00:13:09.060 --> 00:13:09.899
 has gone

00:13:09.899 --> 00:13:10.399
 silent.

00:13:10.920 --> 00:13:11.899
 He's removed

00:13:11.899 --> 00:13:12.779
 his word

00:13:12.779 --> 00:13:13.940
 from Ahab.

00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:15.519
 You see

00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:16.440
 when God's

00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:16.980
 word is

00:13:16.980 --> 00:13:17.680
 absent,

00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:19.360
 it isn't

00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:19.920
 freedom,

00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:21.279
 it isn't

00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:21.820
 good,

00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:24.019
 it's a sign

00:13:24.019 --> 00:13:24.960
 of judgment.

00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:25.180
 judgment.

00:13:26.540 --> 00:13:27.200
 The prophet

00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:28.080
 Amos

00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:29.740
 made this

00:13:29.740 --> 00:13:30.200
 clear.

00:13:31.100 --> 00:13:31.660
 You can see

00:13:31.660 --> 00:13:32.180
 the quote

00:13:32.180 --> 00:13:33.060
 on the screen.

00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:34.040
 He says,

00:13:34.100 --> 00:13:34.700
 the days are

00:13:34.700 --> 00:13:35.120
 coming,

00:13:35.300 --> 00:13:35.879
 declares the

00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:36.560
 sovereign Lord,

00:13:36.920 --> 00:13:37.759
 when I will

00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:38.720
 send a famine

00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:39.300
 through the

00:13:39.300 --> 00:13:39.740
 land,

00:13:40.379 --> 00:13:41.100
 not a famine

00:13:41.100 --> 00:13:41.740
 of food

00:13:41.740 --> 00:13:42.500
 or a thirst

00:13:42.500 --> 00:13:43.259
 for water,

00:13:44.259 --> 00:13:45.300
 but a famine

00:13:45.300 --> 00:13:45.980
 of hearing

00:13:45.980 --> 00:13:46.820
 the words

00:13:46.820 --> 00:13:48.019
 of the Lord.

00:13:48.680 --> 00:13:49.400
 People will

00:13:49.400 --> 00:13:50.100
 stagger from

00:13:50.100 --> 00:13:50.920
 sea to sea

00:13:50.920 --> 00:13:51.800
 and wander

00:13:51.800 --> 00:13:52.440
 from north

00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:53.040
 to east,

00:13:53.519 --> 00:13:54.360
 searching for

00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:54.940
 the word

00:13:54.940 --> 00:13:55.300
 of the

00:13:55.300 --> 00:13:55.659
 Lord,

00:13:56.600 --> 00:13:57.200
 but they

00:13:57.200 --> 00:13:57.800
 will not

00:13:57.800 --> 00:13:58.899
 find it.

00:14:01.100 --> 00:14:02.080
 You see,

00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:03.740
 our country

00:14:03.740 --> 00:14:04.220
 today,

00:14:04.340 --> 00:14:05.039
 our nation,

00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:06.700
 is desperate

00:14:06.700 --> 00:14:08.019
 to silence

00:14:08.019 --> 00:14:08.519
 God,

00:14:09.659 --> 00:14:10.820
 doing everything

00:14:10.820 --> 00:14:11.519
 possible

00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:12.820
 to push

00:14:12.820 --> 00:14:13.560
 God out.

00:14:14.659 --> 00:14:15.220
 We're doing

00:14:15.220 --> 00:14:15.940
 what Ahab

00:14:15.940 --> 00:14:16.440
 did.

00:14:16.680 --> 00:14:17.180
 We're doing

00:14:17.180 --> 00:14:17.879
 our best

00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:19.120
 to keep

00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:19.899
 God away.

00:14:20.899 --> 00:14:21.700
 We set up

00:14:21.700 --> 00:14:22.360
 our own

00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:22.879
 gods,

00:14:23.600 --> 00:14:24.040
 the God

00:14:24.040 --> 00:14:25.160
 of autonomy,

00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:26.280
 self-autonomy,

00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:27.300
 do whatever

00:14:27.300 --> 00:14:28.100
 I want.

00:14:28.900 --> 00:14:29.460
 And now,

00:14:29.560 --> 00:14:29.960
 at last,

00:14:30.060 --> 00:14:30.900
 we're free.

00:14:31.420 --> 00:14:32.340
 God no longer

00:14:32.340 --> 00:14:33.200
 has a place

00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:34.160
 in our society.

00:14:34.500 --> 00:14:35.120
 We don't have

00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:35.840
 to listen to

00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:36.440
 him anymore.

00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:39.960
 But you see,

00:14:40.040 --> 00:14:40.660
 I don't think

00:14:40.660 --> 00:14:41.379
 it's just

00:14:41.379 --> 00:14:42.520
 that we remove

00:14:42.520 --> 00:14:43.020
 God.

00:14:44.160 --> 00:14:45.040
 The danger

00:14:45.040 --> 00:14:45.440
 is,

00:14:45.500 --> 00:14:46.160
 is that God

00:14:46.160 --> 00:14:47.180
 removes his

00:14:47.180 --> 00:14:47.660
 word.

00:14:47.659 --> 00:14:48.919
 and when

00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:49.759
 he removes

00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:50.339
 his word

00:14:50.339 --> 00:14:51.379
 from society,

00:14:52.319 --> 00:14:53.639
 instead of

00:14:53.639 --> 00:14:54.079
 order,

00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:55.419
 there is

00:14:55.419 --> 00:14:56.079
 disorder.

00:14:56.939 --> 00:14:57.559
 Left to

00:14:57.559 --> 00:14:58.120
 ourselves,

00:14:58.259 --> 00:14:58.639
 we don't

00:14:58.639 --> 00:14:59.120
 make our

00:14:59.120 --> 00:14:59.879
 lives better.

00:15:00.319 --> 00:15:00.860
 We fall

00:15:00.860 --> 00:15:01.659
 into ruin

00:15:01.659 --> 00:15:02.879
 and despair.

00:15:04.139 --> 00:15:04.919
 When God

00:15:04.919 --> 00:15:05.879
 is silent,

00:15:06.819 --> 00:15:07.899
 it is not

00:15:07.899 --> 00:15:08.539
 freedom,

00:15:09.539 --> 00:15:10.480
 it is an

00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:10.959
 act of

00:15:10.959 --> 00:15:11.399
 judgment.

00:15:13.699 --> 00:15:14.519
 You see,

00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:15.079
 what this

00:15:15.079 --> 00:15:15.679
 country

00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:17.339
 really needs,

00:15:17.659 --> 00:15:18.639
 is for

00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:19.120
 God to

00:15:19.120 --> 00:15:19.600
 speak,

00:15:20.100 --> 00:15:20.860
 for his

00:15:20.860 --> 00:15:21.579
 word to

00:15:21.579 --> 00:15:22.319
 permeate

00:15:22.319 --> 00:15:23.719
 every area

00:15:23.719 --> 00:15:24.740
 of society

00:15:24.740 --> 00:15:25.799
 and at all

00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:26.600
 levels of

00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:27.059
 government,

00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:29.000
 starting with

00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:29.459
 where we

00:15:29.459 --> 00:15:30.959
 live and

00:15:30.959 --> 00:15:31.399
 where we

00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:31.879
 work.

00:15:32.719 --> 00:15:33.719
 Because it

00:15:33.719 --> 00:15:34.419
 is only by

00:15:34.419 --> 00:15:35.139
 hearing the

00:15:35.139 --> 00:15:35.659
 voice of

00:15:35.659 --> 00:15:37.659
 God will

00:15:37.659 --> 00:15:38.539
 lives begin

00:15:38.539 --> 00:15:39.419
 to change.

00:15:40.860 --> 00:15:41.620
 So first,

00:15:41.799 --> 00:15:42.539
 God rules

00:15:42.539 --> 00:15:43.620
 all things

00:15:43.620 --> 00:15:44.980
 by the

00:15:44.980 --> 00:15:46.360
 power of

00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:46.939
 his word.

00:15:47.659 --> 00:15:49.219
 second,

00:15:50.219 --> 00:15:50.959
 God

00:15:50.959 --> 00:15:51.699
 preserves

00:15:51.699 --> 00:15:52.159
 his

00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:53.000
 servants

00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:54.539
 by the

00:15:54.539 --> 00:15:55.219
 command of

00:15:55.219 --> 00:15:55.819
 his word.

00:15:56.939 --> 00:15:57.379
 You see,

00:15:57.500 --> 00:15:58.379
 telling Ahab

00:15:58.379 --> 00:15:58.959
 there is

00:15:58.959 --> 00:15:59.360
 going to

00:15:59.360 --> 00:15:59.819
 be no

00:15:59.819 --> 00:16:00.259
 rain,

00:16:01.399 --> 00:16:02.179
 also meant

00:16:02.179 --> 00:16:02.939
 that Elijah

00:16:02.939 --> 00:16:03.559
 would have

00:16:03.559 --> 00:16:04.259
 no rain.

00:16:05.419 --> 00:16:05.839
 God's

00:16:05.839 --> 00:16:06.480
 people are

00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:07.240
 not immune

00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:07.779
 from the

00:16:07.779 --> 00:16:08.259
 troubles

00:16:08.259 --> 00:16:09.439
 of this

00:16:09.439 --> 00:16:09.860
 world,

00:16:10.199 --> 00:16:10.699
 but yet

00:16:10.699 --> 00:16:11.219
 God is

00:16:11.219 --> 00:16:11.939
 not finished

00:16:11.939 --> 00:16:12.699
 with Elijah.

00:16:12.700 --> 00:16:14.340
 have a look

00:16:14.340 --> 00:16:14.720
 at verse

00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:15.080
 two.

00:16:16.700 --> 00:16:17.540
 Then the

00:16:17.540 --> 00:16:18.160
 word of

00:16:18.160 --> 00:16:18.560
 the Lord

00:16:18.560 --> 00:16:19.140
 came to

00:16:19.140 --> 00:16:19.640
 Elijah,

00:16:21.640 --> 00:16:22.860
 leave and

00:16:22.860 --> 00:16:23.680
 turn eastward

00:16:23.680 --> 00:16:24.379
 and hide in

00:16:24.379 --> 00:16:24.520
 the

00:16:24.520 --> 00:16:24.820
 Kareth

00:16:24.820 --> 00:16:25.460
 ravine east

00:16:25.460 --> 00:16:25.759
 of the

00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:26.080
 Jordan.

00:16:26.580 --> 00:16:27.080
 You will

00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:27.640
 drink from

00:16:27.640 --> 00:16:28.140
 the book

00:16:28.140 --> 00:16:29.460
 and I

00:16:29.460 --> 00:16:29.800
 have

00:16:29.800 --> 00:16:30.720
 instructed

00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:31.100
 the

00:16:31.100 --> 00:16:31.780
 ravens to

00:16:31.780 --> 00:16:32.379
 supply you

00:16:32.379 --> 00:16:32.820
 with food

00:16:32.820 --> 00:16:33.120
 there.

00:16:33.980 --> 00:16:34.940
 And just

00:16:34.940 --> 00:16:35.660
 as God

00:16:35.660 --> 00:16:36.220
 said,

00:16:36.540 --> 00:16:36.800
 verse

00:16:36.800 --> 00:16:37.220
 six,

00:16:37.220 --> 00:16:38.160
 the

00:16:38.160 --> 00:16:38.740
 ravens

00:16:38.740 --> 00:16:39.220
 brought

00:16:39.220 --> 00:16:39.460
 him

00:16:39.460 --> 00:16:39.840
 bread

00:16:39.840 --> 00:16:40.060
 and

00:16:40.060 --> 00:16:40.300
 meat

00:16:40.300 --> 00:16:40.460
 in

00:16:40.460 --> 00:16:40.600
 the

00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:40.920
 morning

00:16:40.920 --> 00:16:41.160
 and

00:16:41.160 --> 00:16:41.460
 bread

00:16:41.460 --> 00:16:41.660
 and

00:16:41.660 --> 00:16:41.879
 meat

00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:42.019
 in

00:16:42.019 --> 00:16:42.139
 the

00:16:42.139 --> 00:16:42.440
 evening

00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:42.620
 and

00:16:42.620 --> 00:16:42.740
 he

00:16:42.740 --> 00:16:43.040
 drank

00:16:43.040 --> 00:16:43.279
 from

00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:43.440
 the

00:16:43.440 --> 00:16:43.820
 brook.

00:16:44.800 --> 00:16:45.379
 But that

00:16:45.379 --> 00:16:45.740
 was not

00:16:45.740 --> 00:16:46.259
 the only

00:16:46.259 --> 00:16:46.800
 taste

00:16:46.800 --> 00:16:47.580
 of God's

00:16:47.580 --> 00:16:48.080
 provision.

00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:49.019
 Look at

00:16:49.019 --> 00:16:49.240
 verse

00:16:49.240 --> 00:16:49.639
 seven.

00:16:50.320 --> 00:16:50.840
 Sometime

00:16:50.840 --> 00:16:51.440
 later the

00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:51.680
 brook

00:16:51.680 --> 00:16:52.240
 dried up

00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:52.540
 because

00:16:52.540 --> 00:16:52.820
 there

00:16:52.820 --> 00:16:52.940
 had

00:16:52.940 --> 00:16:53.080
 been

00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:53.320
 no

00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:53.560
 rain

00:16:53.560 --> 00:16:53.720
 in

00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:53.840
 the

00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:54.120
 land.

00:16:54.620 --> 00:16:54.740
 Then

00:16:54.740 --> 00:16:54.899
 the

00:16:54.899 --> 00:16:55.120
 word

00:16:55.120 --> 00:16:55.259
 of

00:16:55.259 --> 00:16:55.420
 the

00:16:55.420 --> 00:16:55.620
 Lord

00:16:55.620 --> 00:16:55.940
 came

00:16:55.940 --> 00:16:56.100
 to

00:16:56.100 --> 00:16:56.300
 him,

00:16:56.680 --> 00:16:57.019
 go

00:16:57.019 --> 00:16:57.220
 at

00:16:57.220 --> 00:16:57.500
 once

00:16:57.500 --> 00:16:57.740
 to

00:16:57.740 --> 00:16:58.340
 Zarephath

00:16:58.340 --> 00:16:58.500
 in

00:16:58.500 --> 00:16:58.639
 the

00:16:58.639 --> 00:16:58.980
 region

00:16:58.980 --> 00:16:59.160
 of

00:16:59.160 --> 00:16:59.600
 Sidon

00:16:59.600 --> 00:16:59.759
 and

00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:00.040
 stay

00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:00.339
 there,

00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:01.259
 I

00:17:01.259 --> 00:17:01.579
 have

00:17:01.579 --> 00:17:02.399
 instructed

00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:02.699
 a

00:17:02.699 --> 00:17:02.939
 widow

00:17:02.939 --> 00:17:03.279
 there

00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:03.519
 to

00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:03.919
 supply

00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:04.139
 you

00:17:04.139 --> 00:17:04.319
 with

00:17:04.319 --> 00:17:04.740
 food.

00:17:05.700 --> 00:17:06.119
 And

00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:06.639
 just

00:17:06.639 --> 00:17:06.940
 as

00:17:06.940 --> 00:17:07.240
 God

00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:07.779
 said,

00:17:08.460 --> 00:17:08.799
 verse

00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:09.420
 15,

00:17:10.420 --> 00:17:10.700
 she

00:17:10.700 --> 00:17:11.039
 went

00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:11.420
 away,

00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:11.639
 the

00:17:11.639 --> 00:17:11.839
 widow

00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:12.139
 went

00:17:12.139 --> 00:17:12.399
 away

00:17:12.399 --> 00:17:12.579
 and

00:17:12.579 --> 00:17:12.779
 did

00:17:12.779 --> 00:17:12.960
 as

00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:13.359
 Elijah

00:17:13.359 --> 00:17:13.859
 told

00:17:13.859 --> 00:17:14.059
 her,

00:17:14.420 --> 00:17:14.680
 so

00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:14.920
 there

00:17:14.920 --> 00:17:15.139
 was

00:17:15.139 --> 00:17:15.839
 food

00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:16.519
 every

00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:16.960
 day

00:17:16.960 --> 00:17:17.220
 for

00:17:17.220 --> 00:17:17.700
 Elijah

00:17:17.700 --> 00:17:18.019
 and

00:17:18.019 --> 00:17:18.180
 for

00:17:18.180 --> 00:17:18.319
 the

00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:18.599
 woman

00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:19.559
 and

00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:19.839
 her

00:17:19.839 --> 00:17:20.319
 family.

00:17:21.539 --> 00:17:22.139
 Elijah

00:17:22.139 --> 00:17:22.500
 is

00:17:22.500 --> 00:17:23.059
 twice

00:17:23.059 --> 00:17:23.319
 at

00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:23.519
 the

00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:23.819
 mercy

00:17:23.819 --> 00:17:24.099
 of

00:17:24.099 --> 00:17:24.480
 God.

00:17:25.059 --> 00:17:25.460
 But

00:17:25.460 --> 00:17:25.839
 God

00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:26.480
 sees

00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:26.720
 the

00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:27.000
 need

00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:27.159
 of

00:17:27.159 --> 00:17:27.379
 his

00:17:27.379 --> 00:17:27.859
 servant

00:17:27.859 --> 00:17:28.879
 and

00:17:28.879 --> 00:17:29.259
 by

00:17:29.259 --> 00:17:29.599
 his

00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:30.299
 words

00:17:30.299 --> 00:17:31.279
 just

00:17:31.279 --> 00:17:32.579
 instructs

00:17:32.579 --> 00:17:33.099
 ravens

00:17:33.099 --> 00:17:33.400
 and

00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:33.960
 commands

00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:34.559
 widows

00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:35.099
 to

00:17:35.099 --> 00:17:35.420
 feed

00:17:35.420 --> 00:17:35.680
 him.

00:17:36.879 --> 00:17:37.279
 Now

00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:37.519
 isn't

00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:37.720
 that

00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:38.440
 strange

00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:38.700
 to

00:17:38.700 --> 00:17:39.000
 you?

00:17:39.920 --> 00:17:40.559
 Ravens

00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:40.900
 don't

00:17:40.900 --> 00:17:41.460
 usually

00:17:41.460 --> 00:17:41.960
 bring

00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:42.339
 you

00:17:42.339 --> 00:17:43.019
 your

00:17:43.019 --> 00:17:43.400
 dinner.

00:17:44.279 --> 00:17:44.920
 If

00:17:44.920 --> 00:17:45.319
 anything

00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:45.559
 they

00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:45.839
 might

00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:46.339
 steal

00:17:46.339 --> 00:17:46.619
 your

00:17:46.619 --> 00:17:46.900
 dinner.

00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:48.220
 And

00:17:48.220 --> 00:17:48.599
 widows

00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:48.960
 don't

00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:49.319
 usually

00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:49.839
 provide

00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:50.559
 food,

00:17:51.220 --> 00:17:51.799
 they

00:17:51.799 --> 00:17:52.140
 need

00:17:52.140 --> 00:17:52.700
 provided

00:17:52.700 --> 00:17:53.220
 for.

00:17:54.160 --> 00:17:54.660
 But

00:17:54.660 --> 00:17:55.099
 God

00:17:55.099 --> 00:17:55.640
 simply

00:17:55.640 --> 00:17:56.379
 commands

00:17:56.379 --> 00:17:56.680
 his

00:17:56.680 --> 00:17:57.259
 words

00:17:57.259 --> 00:17:58.879
 and

00:17:58.879 --> 00:17:59.599
 Elijah's

00:17:59.599 --> 00:18:00.039
 needs

00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:01.019
 are

00:18:01.019 --> 00:18:01.480
 met.

00:18:04.299 --> 00:18:04.980
 Now

00:18:04.980 --> 00:18:05.319
 can we

00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:05.759
 expect

00:18:05.759 --> 00:18:06.079
 God

00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:06.299
 to

00:18:06.299 --> 00:18:06.660
 supply

00:18:06.660 --> 00:18:06.980
 all

00:18:06.980 --> 00:18:07.220
 our

00:18:07.220 --> 00:18:07.660
 needs

00:18:07.660 --> 00:18:08.039
 in a

00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:08.319
 similar

00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:08.680
 way?

00:18:09.879 --> 00:18:10.240
 If

00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:10.500
 I'm

00:18:10.500 --> 00:18:10.839
 short

00:18:10.839 --> 00:18:11.059
 of

00:18:11.059 --> 00:18:11.599
 cash

00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:12.920
 will

00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:13.099
 a

00:18:13.099 --> 00:18:13.480
 robin

00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:13.819
 bring

00:18:13.819 --> 00:18:14.000
 me

00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:14.160
 a

00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:14.500
 20

00:18:14.500 --> 00:18:14.779
 euro

00:18:14.779 --> 00:18:15.259
 note?

00:18:16.619 --> 00:18:17.279
 Or

00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:17.480
 will

00:18:17.480 --> 00:18:17.640
 a

00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:18.059
 homeless

00:18:18.059 --> 00:18:18.480
 man

00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:18.960
 provide

00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:19.180
 me

00:18:19.180 --> 00:18:19.379
 the

00:18:19.379 --> 00:18:19.700
 keys

00:18:19.700 --> 00:18:19.839
 of

00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:19.980
 a

00:18:19.980 --> 00:18:20.220
 brand

00:18:20.220 --> 00:18:20.440
 new

00:18:20.440 --> 00:18:20.799
 car?

00:18:23.019 --> 00:18:23.680
 Well

00:18:23.680 --> 00:18:23.839
 I

00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:24.160
 don't

00:18:24.160 --> 00:18:24.559
 doubt

00:18:24.559 --> 00:18:24.960
 that

00:18:24.960 --> 00:18:25.279
 God

00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:26.039
 provides.

00:18:27.259 --> 00:18:27.640
 God

00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:27.920
 just

00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:28.220
 needs

00:18:28.220 --> 00:18:28.460
 to

00:18:28.460 --> 00:18:28.900
 command

00:18:28.900 --> 00:18:30.579
 and

00:18:30.579 --> 00:18:30.779
 it

00:18:30.779 --> 00:18:31.119
 will

00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:31.640
 happen.

00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:33.579
 But

00:18:33.579 --> 00:18:33.740
 I

00:18:33.740 --> 00:18:34.039
 don't

00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:34.359
 think

00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:34.879
 that's

00:18:34.879 --> 00:18:35.119
 the

00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:35.460
 message

00:18:35.460 --> 00:18:35.759
 here.

00:18:35.859 --> 00:18:36.099
 That's

00:18:36.099 --> 00:18:36.480
 why we

00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:36.680
 need

00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:36.980
 to be

00:18:36.980 --> 00:18:37.579
 careful

00:18:37.579 --> 00:18:38.759
 not

00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:39.000
 to

00:18:39.000 --> 00:18:39.319
 read

00:18:39.319 --> 00:18:39.619
 too

00:18:39.619 --> 00:18:39.940
 much

00:18:39.940 --> 00:18:40.180
 in

00:18:40.180 --> 00:18:40.400
 but

00:18:40.400 --> 00:18:40.839
 read

00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:41.299
 God's

00:18:41.299 --> 00:18:41.619
 word

00:18:41.619 --> 00:18:42.599
 carefully.

00:18:44.259 --> 00:18:44.900
 Remember

00:18:44.900 --> 00:18:45.299
 what

00:18:45.299 --> 00:18:45.980
 Elijah's

00:18:45.980 --> 00:18:46.400
 role

00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:47.059
 is.

00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:48.460
 He's

00:18:48.460 --> 00:18:48.619
 a

00:18:48.619 --> 00:18:48.980
 prophet

00:18:48.980 --> 00:18:49.319
 isn't

00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:49.519
 he?

00:18:50.220 --> 00:18:50.619
 He

00:18:50.619 --> 00:18:50.879
 is

00:18:50.879 --> 00:18:51.400
 speaking

00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:52.119
 God's

00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:52.519
 word

00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:52.940
 on

00:18:52.940 --> 00:18:53.519
 behalf

00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:53.740
 of

00:18:53.740 --> 00:18:54.039
 God

00:18:54.039 --> 00:18:54.359
 to

00:18:54.359 --> 00:18:54.559
 the

00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:54.920
 people.

00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:56.420
 And

00:18:56.420 --> 00:18:56.759
 God

00:18:56.759 --> 00:18:57.039
 has

00:18:57.039 --> 00:18:57.380
 more

00:18:57.380 --> 00:18:57.840
 things

00:18:57.840 --> 00:18:58.060
 for

00:18:58.060 --> 00:18:58.519
 Elijah

00:18:58.519 --> 00:18:58.779
 to

00:18:58.779 --> 00:18:59.160
 say.

00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:00.279
 God

00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:00.759
 hasn't

00:19:00.759 --> 00:19:01.240
 finished

00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:01.700
 speaking

00:19:01.700 --> 00:19:01.980
 to

00:19:01.980 --> 00:19:02.360
 Ahab.

00:19:02.700 --> 00:19:03.039
 We'll

00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:03.320
 meet

00:19:03.320 --> 00:19:03.700
 Ahab

00:19:03.700 --> 00:19:04.100
 again

00:19:04.100 --> 00:19:04.279
 and

00:19:04.279 --> 00:19:04.480
 all

00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:04.620
 the

00:19:04.620 --> 00:19:04.900
 people

00:19:04.900 --> 00:19:05.120
 on

00:19:05.120 --> 00:19:05.360
 Mount

00:19:05.360 --> 00:19:05.900
 Carmel

00:19:05.900 --> 00:19:06.900
 will

00:19:06.900 --> 00:19:07.160
 see

00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:07.360
 what

00:19:07.360 --> 00:19:07.779
 happens

00:19:07.779 --> 00:19:08.180
 there.

00:19:09.180 --> 00:19:09.640
 But

00:19:09.640 --> 00:19:10.120
 God

00:19:10.120 --> 00:19:10.340
 is

00:19:10.340 --> 00:19:10.640
 going

00:19:10.640 --> 00:19:10.940
 to

00:19:10.940 --> 00:19:11.539
 preserve

00:19:11.539 --> 00:19:12.500
 Elijah

00:19:12.500 --> 00:19:13.700
 for

00:19:13.700 --> 00:19:13.960
 as

00:19:13.960 --> 00:19:14.400
 long

00:19:14.400 --> 00:19:14.640
 as

00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:14.960
 God

00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:15.420
 needs

00:19:15.420 --> 00:19:15.680
 him.

00:19:16.380 --> 00:19:16.759
 This

00:19:16.759 --> 00:19:17.100
 was

00:19:17.100 --> 00:19:17.640
 God's

00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:18.200
 plan

00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:18.860
 for

00:19:18.860 --> 00:19:19.500
 Elijah's

00:19:19.500 --> 00:19:19.920
 life.

00:19:21.120 --> 00:19:21.340
 Not

00:19:21.340 --> 00:19:21.920
 everyone

00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:22.380
 had

00:19:22.380 --> 00:19:22.900
 ravens

00:19:22.900 --> 00:19:23.160
 and

00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:23.519
 widows

00:19:23.519 --> 00:19:23.740
 to

00:19:23.740 --> 00:19:23.960
 bring

00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:24.140
 them

00:19:24.140 --> 00:19:24.539
 food.

00:19:24.960 --> 00:19:25.080
 In

00:19:25.080 --> 00:19:25.360
 fact,

00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:25.699
 if you

00:19:25.699 --> 00:19:25.959
 are to

00:19:25.959 --> 00:19:26.179
 read

00:19:26.179 --> 00:19:26.399
 on

00:19:26.399 --> 00:19:26.639
 into

00:19:26.639 --> 00:19:27.019
 chapter

00:19:27.019 --> 00:19:27.619
 18,

00:19:27.919 --> 00:19:28.139
 it

00:19:28.139 --> 00:19:28.500
 tells

00:19:28.500 --> 00:19:28.699
 us

00:19:28.699 --> 00:19:28.899
 there

00:19:28.899 --> 00:19:29.119
 that

00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:29.399
 while

00:19:29.399 --> 00:19:30.059
 Elijah's

00:19:30.059 --> 00:19:30.339
 life

00:19:30.339 --> 00:19:30.539
 was

00:19:30.539 --> 00:19:30.819
 being

00:19:30.819 --> 00:19:31.399
 preserved,

00:19:31.799 --> 00:19:32.159
 other

00:19:32.159 --> 00:19:32.699
 prophets

00:19:32.699 --> 00:19:32.919
 were

00:19:32.919 --> 00:19:33.259
 being

00:19:33.259 --> 00:19:33.799
 killed.

00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:37.039
 The

00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:37.399
 point

00:19:37.399 --> 00:19:37.959
 is,

00:19:38.839 --> 00:19:39.359
 God

00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:39.659
 has

00:19:39.659 --> 00:19:40.039
 more

00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:40.319
 for

00:19:40.319 --> 00:19:40.799
 Elijah

00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:41.079
 to

00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:41.500
 do,

00:19:42.259 --> 00:19:42.699
 so

00:19:42.699 --> 00:19:42.979
 his

00:19:42.979 --> 00:19:43.459
 life

00:19:43.459 --> 00:19:44.179
 is

00:19:44.179 --> 00:19:44.659
 spared.

00:19:46.779 --> 00:19:47.459
 Ralph

00:19:47.459 --> 00:19:47.939
 Davis,

00:19:48.099 --> 00:19:48.339
 one

00:19:48.339 --> 00:19:49.099
 author

00:19:49.099 --> 00:19:49.559
 that I've

00:19:49.559 --> 00:19:49.699
 been

00:19:49.699 --> 00:19:50.019
 reading

00:19:50.019 --> 00:19:50.759
 this week

00:19:50.759 --> 00:19:50.959
 has

00:19:50.959 --> 00:19:51.240
 helped

00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:51.519
 me

00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:52.259
 think

00:19:52.259 --> 00:19:52.719
 clearly

00:19:52.719 --> 00:19:53.139
 about

00:19:53.139 --> 00:19:53.559
 this.

00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:54.399
 He

00:19:54.399 --> 00:19:54.679
 says

00:19:54.679 --> 00:19:54.940
 this,

00:20:02.700 --> 00:20:03.139
 Until

00:20:05.500 --> 00:20:05.960
 God

00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:10.139
 That's

00:20:10.139 --> 00:20:10.399
 the

00:20:10.399 --> 00:20:10.859
 comfort

00:20:19.980 --> 00:20:20.779

00:20:21.539 --> 00:20:21.859

00:20:21.859 --> 00:20:22.859
 We

00:20:22.859 --> 00:20:23.059

00:20:24.619 --> 00:20:24.979

00:20:24.979 --> 00:20:25.319
 or

00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:25.579

00:20:39.279 --> 00:20:39.619
 Now

00:20:39.619 --> 00:20:39.819
 that

00:20:43.019 --> 00:20:43.740
 Our

00:20:49.980 --> 00:20:51.339
 Then

00:21:57.600 --> 00:21:57.920
 will be

00:21:57.920 --> 00:21:58.460
 with you.

00:21:59.440 --> 00:21:59.900
 Just

00:21:59.900 --> 00:22:00.580
 as God

00:22:00.580 --> 00:22:01.000
 sent

00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:01.580
 Elijah

00:22:01.580 --> 00:22:03.180
 so

00:22:03.180 --> 00:22:03.580
 God

00:22:03.580 --> 00:22:03.799
 is

00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:04.220
 sending

00:22:04.220 --> 00:22:04.920
 us

00:22:04.920 --> 00:22:05.660
 into

00:22:05.660 --> 00:22:05.940
 the

00:22:05.940 --> 00:22:06.279
 world.

00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:08.440
 Go

00:22:08.440 --> 00:22:08.820
 and make

00:22:08.820 --> 00:22:09.420
 disciples.

00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:10.720
 That's

00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:11.000
 my

00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:11.559
 plan

00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:11.860
 for

00:22:11.860 --> 00:22:12.140
 you

00:22:12.140 --> 00:22:12.420
 for

00:22:12.420 --> 00:22:12.600
 your

00:22:12.600 --> 00:22:13.039
 life.

00:22:13.039 --> 00:22:14.039
 wherever

00:22:14.039 --> 00:22:14.319
 you

00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:14.539
 are

00:22:14.539 --> 00:22:14.819
 wherever

00:22:14.819 --> 00:22:15.119
 you

00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:15.440
 live

00:22:15.440 --> 00:22:16.379
 whatever

00:22:16.379 --> 00:22:16.680
 you

00:22:16.680 --> 00:22:16.960
 do

00:22:16.960 --> 00:22:18.639
 and

00:22:18.639 --> 00:22:18.940
 God

00:22:18.940 --> 00:22:19.139
 will

00:22:19.139 --> 00:22:19.559
 preserve

00:22:19.559 --> 00:22:19.799
 you

00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:19.980
 and

00:22:19.980 --> 00:22:20.279
 keep

00:22:20.279 --> 00:22:20.539
 you

00:22:20.539 --> 00:22:21.279
 until

00:22:21.279 --> 00:22:22.799

00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:23.079
 work

00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:23.220
 he

00:22:23.220 --> 00:22:23.440
 has

00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:23.599
 for

00:22:23.599 --> 00:22:23.720
 you

00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:23.879
 to

00:22:23.879 --> 00:22:24.039
 do

00:22:24.039 --> 00:22:24.200
 is

00:22:24.200 --> 00:22:24.700
 completed.

00:22:26.639 --> 00:22:27.200
 So

00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:27.559
 God

00:22:27.559 --> 00:22:28.119
 preserves

00:22:28.119 --> 00:22:28.460
 his

00:22:28.460 --> 00:22:29.119
 servants

00:22:29.119 --> 00:22:30.619
 by the

00:22:30.619 --> 00:22:31.000
 command

00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:31.359
 of his

00:22:31.359 --> 00:22:31.700
 word.

00:22:35.019 --> 00:22:35.579
 And

00:22:35.579 --> 00:22:35.940
 third

00:22:35.940 --> 00:22:37.559
 God

00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:38.059
 reaches

00:22:38.059 --> 00:22:38.420
 the

00:22:38.420 --> 00:22:38.899

00:22:38.900 --> 00:22:44.720
 God's

00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:45.060
 command

00:22:45.060 --> 00:22:45.340
 to

00:22:45.340 --> 00:22:45.880

00:22:45.880 --> 00:22:46.780
 to

00:22:46.780 --> 00:22:47.040
 go

00:22:47.040 --> 00:22:47.259

00:22:50.280 --> 00:22:50.660
 empty

00:22:50.660 --> 00:22:51.080
 belly.

00:22:52.220 --> 00:22:52.820
 God's

00:22:52.820 --> 00:22:53.380
 desire

00:22:53.380 --> 00:22:53.920
 was to

00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:54.160

00:22:56.800 --> 00:22:56.960

00:22:56.960 --> 00:22:57.300
 world.

00:22:58.300 --> 00:22:58.940
 Look

00:22:58.940 --> 00:22:59.080
 at

00:22:59.080 --> 00:22:59.360
 verse

00:22:59.360 --> 00:22:59.920
 eight.

00:23:01.900 --> 00:23:02.519

00:23:12.420 --> 00:23:12.960
 Well

00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:13.319
 we know

00:23:13.519 --> 00:23:14.039
 Sidon

00:23:14.039 --> 00:23:14.400
 is.

00:23:15.840 --> 00:23:16.000
 Do

00:23:17.940 --> 00:23:18.319

00:23:18.539 --> 00:23:18.779
 at the

00:23:18.779 --> 00:23:19.120
 beginning?

00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:20.180
 That's

00:23:20.180 --> 00:23:20.360
 the

00:23:20.360 --> 00:23:20.880
 hometown

00:23:20.880 --> 00:23:21.980
 of

00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:23.420
 Jezebel.

00:23:24.340 --> 00:23:24.880
 That's

00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:25.259
 also

00:23:25.259 --> 00:23:25.680
 where

00:23:25.680 --> 00:23:26.259
 Ahab

00:23:26.259 --> 00:23:26.500
 had

00:23:26.500 --> 00:23:26.779
 come

00:23:26.779 --> 00:23:27.200
 across

00:23:27.200 --> 00:23:27.720
 Baal

00:23:27.720 --> 00:23:28.519

 brought

00:23:28.880 --> 00:23:29.039

00:23:29.660 --> 00:23:29.880
 own

00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:30.360
 country.

00:23:31.200 --> 00:23:31.840
 If

00:23:31.840 --> 00:23:32.059
 you

00:23:32.059 --> 00:23:32.259

00:23:32.779 --> 00:23:33.279
 follower

00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:33.720
 like

00:23:33.720 --> 00:23:34.180
 Elijah

00:23:34.180 --> 00:23:34.460
 you

00:23:34.460 --> 00:23:34.880
 don't

00:23:34.880 --> 00:23:35.120
 go

00:23:35.120 --> 00:23:35.420
 into

00:23:35.420 --> 00:23:36.079
 Sidon.

00:23:36.079 --> 00:23:37.119
 There's

00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:37.359
 no

00:23:37.359 --> 00:23:37.919

00:23:38.359 --> 00:23:38.500
 There's

00:23:39.639 --> 00:23:40.039
 Sidon.

00:23:40.279 --> 00:23:40.659
 Just

00:23:40.659 --> 00:23:41.480
 godless

00:23:41.480 --> 00:23:42.259
 pagans

00:23:42.259 --> 00:23:42.859
 who

00:23:42.859 --> 00:23:43.579
 deserve

00:23:43.579 --> 00:23:44.359
 God's

00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:44.799
 judgment.

00:23:48.220 --> 00:23:49.139
 But

00:23:49.139 --> 00:23:49.379
 God

00:23:49.379 --> 00:23:49.639
 doesn't

00:23:49.639 --> 00:23:49.879
 have

00:23:49.879 --> 00:23:50.419
 favourites

00:23:50.419 --> 00:23:50.679
 does

00:23:50.679 --> 00:23:50.859
 he?

00:23:52.319 --> 00:23:52.980
 God's

00:23:52.980 --> 00:23:53.460
 desire

00:23:53.460 --> 00:23:54.500
 is that

00:23:54.500 --> 00:23:54.819
 all

00:23:54.819 --> 00:23:55.299
 people

00:23:55.299 --> 00:23:55.679
 and

00:23:55.679 --> 00:23:56.039
 all

00:23:56.039 --> 00:23:56.639
 nations

00:23:56.639 --> 00:23:57.419
 hear

00:23:57.419 --> 00:23:57.960
 the

00:23:57.960 --> 00:23:58.419
 grace

00:23:58.419 --> 00:23:59.059
 of

00:23:59.059 --> 00:23:59.379
 his

00:23:59.379 --> 00:23:59.879
 word.

00:24:01.119 --> 00:24:01.539
 So

00:24:01.539 --> 00:24:01.879
 verse

00:24:01.879 --> 00:24:02.259
 10

00:24:02.259 --> 00:24:03.839
 Elijah

00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:04.359

00:24:04.359 --> 00:24:04.960
 to

00:24:04.960 --> 00:24:05.679
 Zarephath

00:24:05.680 --> 00:24:07.160
 into

00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:07.779
 Sidon

00:24:07.779 --> 00:24:08.660

00:24:08.660 --> 00:24:09.000
 pagan

00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:09.539
 nation.

00:24:11.900 --> 00:24:12.400
 Jesus

00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:13.799
 himself

00:24:13.799 --> 00:24:14.200
 picked

00:24:14.200 --> 00:24:14.620
 up on

00:24:17.480 --> 00:24:17.759
 The

00:24:19.360 --> 00:24:19.640
 were

00:24:19.640 --> 00:24:20.140
 getting

00:24:20.140 --> 00:24:20.820
 uncomfortable

 with

00:24:21.380 --> 00:24:21.980
 this

00:24:21.980 --> 00:24:22.539
 Jesus

00:24:22.539 --> 00:24:22.980
 guy

00:24:22.980 --> 00:24:23.200
 who

00:24:23.320 --> 00:24:23.740

 was

00:24:24.200 --> 00:24:24.840
 hanging

00:24:24.840 --> 00:24:25.320
 around

00:24:25.320 --> 00:24:25.660
 with

00:24:25.660 --> 00:24:26.320

 people

00:24:28.120 --> 00:24:28.440
 the

00:24:28.440 --> 00:24:29.700
 outsiders

00:24:29.700 --> 00:24:30.140
 the

00:24:30.140 --> 00:24:31.100
 Gentiles

00:24:31.100 --> 00:24:31.360
 the

00:24:31.360 --> 00:24:31.759
 sinners

00:24:31.759 --> 00:24:32.299
 the

00:24:32.299 --> 00:24:33.019
 unclean

00:24:33.019 --> 00:24:33.480
 people

00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:34.920
 and

00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:35.079
 they

00:24:35.079 --> 00:24:35.360
 didn't

00:24:35.360 --> 00:24:35.720
 like

00:24:35.720 --> 00:24:36.099
 it.

00:24:37.740 --> 00:24:38.360
 So

00:24:38.360 --> 00:24:38.720
 Jesus

00:24:38.720 --> 00:24:39.279
 reminds

00:24:39.279 --> 00:24:39.579
 them.

00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:40.960
 Here

00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:41.259
 it is

00:24:41.259 --> 00:24:41.559
 on the

00:24:41.559 --> 00:24:41.920
 screen.

00:24:42.059 --> 00:24:42.279
 Jesus

00:24:42.279 --> 00:24:42.640
 said

00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:42.799
 to

00:24:42.799 --> 00:24:42.980
 them

00:24:42.980 --> 00:24:43.740
 no

00:24:43.740 --> 00:24:44.259
 prophet

00:24:44.259 --> 00:24:44.539
 is

00:24:44.539 --> 00:24:45.019
 accepted

00:24:45.019 --> 00:24:45.279
 in

00:24:45.279 --> 00:24:45.440
 his

00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:45.839
 hometown.

00:24:46.920 --> 00:24:47.120
 I

00:24:47.120 --> 00:24:47.539
 assure

00:24:47.539 --> 00:24:47.799
 you

00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:48.039
 that

00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:48.240
 there

00:24:48.240 --> 00:24:48.380
 were

00:24:48.380 --> 00:24:48.740
 many

00:24:48.740 --> 00:24:49.200
 widows

00:24:49.200 --> 00:24:49.440
 in

00:24:49.440 --> 00:24:49.860
 Israel

00:24:49.860 --> 00:24:50.099
 in

00:24:50.099 --> 00:24:50.720
 Elijah's

00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:50.980
 time

00:24:50.980 --> 00:24:51.180
 when

00:24:51.180 --> 00:24:51.360
 the

00:24:51.360 --> 00:24:51.680
 sky

00:24:51.680 --> 00:24:51.940
 was

00:24:51.940 --> 00:24:52.180
 shut

00:24:52.180 --> 00:24:52.380
 for

00:24:52.380 --> 00:24:52.640
 three

00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:52.779
 and

00:24:52.779 --> 00:24:52.860
 a

00:24:52.860 --> 00:24:53.079
 half

00:24:53.079 --> 00:24:53.480
 years

00:24:53.480 --> 00:24:54.460
 and

00:24:54.460 --> 00:24:54.579
 there

00:24:54.579 --> 00:24:54.720
 was

00:24:54.720 --> 00:24:54.880
 a

00:24:54.880 --> 00:24:55.180
 severe

00:24:55.180 --> 00:24:55.620
 famine

00:24:55.620 --> 00:24:56.000
 throughout

00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:56.279
 the

00:24:56.279 --> 00:24:56.680
 land.

00:24:57.680 --> 00:24:57.900
 Yet

00:24:57.900 --> 00:24:58.360
 Elijah

00:24:58.360 --> 00:24:58.640
 was

00:24:58.640 --> 00:24:58.880
 not

00:24:58.880 --> 00:24:59.200
 sent

00:24:59.200 --> 00:24:59.400
 to

00:24:59.400 --> 00:24:59.660
 any

00:24:59.660 --> 00:24:59.860
 of

00:24:59.860 --> 00:25:00.120
 them

00:25:00.120 --> 00:25:01.299
 but

00:25:01.299 --> 00:25:01.480
 to

00:25:01.480 --> 00:25:01.640
 a

00:25:01.640 --> 00:25:01.900
 widow

00:25:01.900 --> 00:25:02.160
 in

00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:02.560
 Zerath

00:25:02.560 --> 00:25:03.720
 in

00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:03.880
 the

00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:04.240
 region

00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:04.460
 of

00:25:04.460 --> 00:25:04.940
 Sidon.

00:25:06.180 --> 00:25:06.400
 You

00:25:06.400 --> 00:25:06.740
 see

00:25:06.740 --> 00:25:08.680
 God's

00:25:08.680 --> 00:25:09.160
 plan

00:25:09.160 --> 00:25:10.019
 God's

00:25:10.019 --> 00:25:10.580
 desire

00:25:10.580 --> 00:25:11.560
 is that

00:25:11.560 --> 00:25:11.840
 his

00:25:11.840 --> 00:25:12.340
 grace

00:25:12.340 --> 00:25:13.480
 always

00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:14.740
 overflows

00:25:14.740 --> 00:25:15.180
 to the

00:25:15.180 --> 00:25:15.800
 outsiders.

00:25:17.080 --> 00:25:17.400
 His

00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:17.920
 desire

00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:18.860
 is always

00:25:18.860 --> 00:25:19.700
 to reach

00:25:19.700 --> 00:25:20.460
 the

00:25:20.460 --> 00:25:21.340
 godless

00:25:21.340 --> 00:25:22.240
 pagan

00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:22.860
 nations

00:25:22.860 --> 00:25:23.380
 of the

00:25:23.380 --> 00:25:23.780
 world

00:25:23.780 --> 00:25:24.560
 to

00:25:24.560 --> 00:25:25.200
 widows

00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:25.580
 just

00:25:25.580 --> 00:25:25.860
 like

00:25:25.860 --> 00:25:26.140
 this

00:25:26.140 --> 00:25:26.560
 to

00:25:26.560 --> 00:25:27.120
 people

00:25:27.120 --> 00:25:27.500
 just

00:25:27.500 --> 00:25:27.780
 like

00:25:27.780 --> 00:25:28.040
 us

00:25:28.040 --> 00:25:28.540
 so

00:25:28.540 --> 00:25:29.080
 we

00:25:29.080 --> 00:25:29.640
 too

00:25:29.640 --> 00:25:30.640
 can

00:25:30.640 --> 00:25:30.900
 know

00:25:30.900 --> 00:25:31.060
 and

00:25:31.060 --> 00:25:32.000
 experience

00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:32.759
 his

00:25:32.759 --> 00:25:33.259
 grace.

00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:36.440
 Look

00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:36.680
 at the

00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:37.340
 interaction

00:25:37.340 --> 00:25:38.900
 between

00:25:38.900 --> 00:25:39.420
 Elijah

00:25:39.420 --> 00:25:39.800
 and

00:25:39.800 --> 00:25:39.940
 the

00:25:39.940 --> 00:25:40.220
 widow

00:25:40.220 --> 00:25:40.620
 verse

00:25:40.620 --> 00:25:41.020
 10

00:25:41.020 --> 00:25:43.360
 we'll

00:25:43.360 --> 00:25:43.540
 pick

00:25:43.540 --> 00:25:43.780
 it up

00:25:43.780 --> 00:25:43.900
 at

00:25:43.900 --> 00:25:44.040
 the

00:25:44.040 --> 00:25:44.240
 end

00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:44.360
 of

00:25:44.360 --> 00:25:44.560
 verse

00:25:44.560 --> 00:25:44.900
 10

00:25:44.900 --> 00:25:46.380
 Elijah

00:25:46.380 --> 00:25:46.860
 called

00:25:46.860 --> 00:25:47.040
 to

00:25:47.040 --> 00:25:47.180
 the

00:25:47.180 --> 00:25:47.400
 widow

00:25:47.400 --> 00:25:47.640
 and

00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:48.060
 asked

00:25:48.060 --> 00:25:49.100
 would

00:25:49.100 --> 00:25:49.259
 you

00:25:49.259 --> 00:25:49.560
 bring

00:25:49.560 --> 00:25:49.720

00:25:49.720 --> 00:25:49.880

00:25:50.980 --> 00:25:51.280
 jar

00:25:51.280 --> 00:25:51.580
 so

00:25:51.580 --> 00:25:51.780
 I

00:25:51.780 --> 00:25:51.960
 may

00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:52.200

00:25:57.759 --> 00:25:57.940
 of

00:25:57.940 --> 00:25:58.360
 bread

00:25:58.359 --> 00:26:00.819

00:26:00.819 --> 00:26:01.259
 surely

00:26:01.259 --> 00:26:01.579

00:26:02.799 --> 00:26:03.039
 lives

 not

00:26:04.839 --> 00:26:05.139
 my

00:26:05.139 --> 00:26:05.459

 but

00:26:05.659 --> 00:26:06.059
 your

00:26:06.059 --> 00:26:06.479
 God

00:26:06.479 --> 00:26:08.039
 I

00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:08.359
 don't

00:26:08.359 --> 00:26:08.539

00:26:23.439 --> 00:26:23.719
 it

 I will

00:37:26.539 --> 00:37:27.259
 die for

00:37:27.259 --> 00:37:27.819

00:37:51.240 --> 00:37:52.400
 one day

00:37:52.400 --> 00:37:53.519
 we will

00:37:53.519 --> 00:37:54.059
 hear the

00:37:54.059 --> 00:37:54.660
 words of

00:37:54.660 --> 00:37:55.120
 the risen

00:37:55.120 --> 00:37:55.600
 Jesus

00:37:55.600 --> 00:37:56.620
 I say

00:37:56.620 --> 00:37:57.260
 to you

00:37:57.260 --> 00:37:58.740
 get up

00:37:58.740 --> 00:38:01.200
 and we

00:38:01.200 --> 00:38:01.840
 will live

00:38:01.840 --> 00:38:04.100
 the power

00:38:04.100 --> 00:38:05.300
 and the

00:38:05.300 --> 00:38:06.039
 authority

00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:06.860
 of God's

00:38:06.860 --> 00:38:07.259
 word

00:38:07.259 --> 00:38:08.559
 to give

00:38:08.559 --> 00:38:09.279
 the dead

00:38:09.279 --> 00:38:10.420
 life

00:38:10.420 --> 00:38:11.400
 for all

00:38:11.400 --> 00:38:11.960
 eternity

00:38:11.960 --> 00:38:14.619
 you see

00:38:14.619 --> 00:38:16.420
 Elijah

00:38:16.420 --> 00:38:17.840
 and all

00:38:17.840 --> 00:38:18.119
 that he

00:38:18.119 --> 00:38:18.500
 did

00:38:18.500 --> 00:38:20.079
 is simply

00:38:20.079 --> 00:38:20.679
 there to

00:38:20.679 --> 00:38:21.420
 point us

00:38:21.420 --> 00:38:22.340
 forward to

00:38:22.340 --> 00:38:23.739
 the true

00:38:23.739 --> 00:38:24.279
 prophet

00:38:24.279 --> 00:38:25.139
 Christ

00:38:25.139 --> 00:38:25.759
 himself

00:38:25.759 --> 00:38:28.239
 who would

00:38:28.239 --> 00:38:28.980
 take death

00:38:28.980 --> 00:38:29.980
 upon himself

00:38:29.980 --> 00:38:31.639
 and who

00:38:31.639 --> 00:38:32.039
 would give

00:38:32.039 --> 00:38:32.719
 life to

00:38:32.719 --> 00:38:33.219
 all who

00:38:33.219 --> 00:38:34.039
 would receive

00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:35.699
 and as we

00:38:35.699 --> 00:38:36.440
 look back

00:38:36.440 --> 00:38:36.840
 to the

00:38:36.840 --> 00:38:37.219
 cross

00:38:37.219 --> 00:38:37.440
 and

00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:38.099
 resurrection

00:38:38.099 --> 00:38:39.259
 like the

00:38:39.259 --> 00:38:39.559
 widow

00:38:39.559 --> 00:38:40.400
 we too

00:38:40.400 --> 00:38:41.039
 now can

00:38:41.039 --> 00:38:41.420
 say

00:38:41.420 --> 00:38:42.500
 now I

00:38:42.500 --> 00:38:42.840
 know

00:38:42.840 --> 00:38:44.360
 that the

00:38:44.360 --> 00:38:44.860
 word

00:38:44.860 --> 00:38:45.440
 of the

00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:45.860
 Lord

00:38:45.860 --> 00:38:46.840
 is

00:38:46.840 --> 00:38:48.019
 the truth

00:38:48.019 --> 00:38:51.239
 do you

00:38:51.239 --> 00:38:51.420
 have

00:38:51.420 --> 00:38:52.079
 confidence

00:38:52.079 --> 00:38:54.179
 in this

00:38:54.179 --> 00:38:54.579
 book

00:38:54.579 --> 00:38:56.360
 do you

00:38:56.360 --> 00:38:56.900
 believe

00:38:56.900 --> 00:38:57.559
 that the

00:38:57.559 --> 00:38:58.019
 words

00:38:58.019 --> 00:38:58.460
 written

00:38:58.460 --> 00:38:58.940
 down

00:38:58.940 --> 00:39:00.360
 is God's

00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:00.779
 truth

00:39:00.780 --> 00:39:02.600
 do you

00:39:02.600 --> 00:39:03.100
 believe

00:39:03.100 --> 00:39:03.980
 that by

00:39:03.980 --> 00:39:04.780
 believing

00:39:04.780 --> 00:39:05.740
 and trusting

00:39:05.740 --> 00:39:06.200
 in this

00:39:06.200 --> 00:39:06.740
 word it

00:39:06.740 --> 00:39:07.140
 will give

00:39:07.140 --> 00:39:07.820
 you life

00:39:07.820 --> 00:39:08.320
 today

00:39:08.320 --> 00:39:09.940
 and life

00:39:09.940 --> 00:39:10.340
 for all

00:39:10.340 --> 00:39:10.900
 eternity

00:39:10.900 --> 00:39:14.260
 we live

00:39:14.260 --> 00:39:14.519
 in a

00:39:14.519 --> 00:39:15.180
 society

00:39:15.180 --> 00:39:16.960
 and a

00:39:16.960 --> 00:39:17.340
 culture

00:39:17.340 --> 00:39:18.240
 where God's

00:39:18.240 --> 00:39:18.820
 word is

00:39:18.820 --> 00:39:19.519
 constantly

00:39:19.519 --> 00:39:20.760
 being silenced

00:39:20.760 --> 00:39:21.740
 and undermined

00:39:21.740 --> 00:39:23.760
 and the

00:39:23.760 --> 00:39:24.740
 temptation is

00:39:24.740 --> 00:39:25.480
 just to put

00:39:25.480 --> 00:39:25.940
 it away

00:39:25.940 --> 00:39:27.440
 don't believe

00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:27.620
 it

00:39:27.620 --> 00:39:28.460
 nobody else

00:39:28.460 --> 00:39:28.880
 does

00:39:28.880 --> 00:39:31.440
 but we

00:39:31.440 --> 00:39:31.800
 can have

00:39:31.800 --> 00:39:32.599
 confidence

00:39:32.599 --> 00:39:33.900
 and know

00:39:33.900 --> 00:39:34.660
 that God's

00:39:34.660 --> 00:39:35.119
 word is

00:39:35.119 --> 00:39:35.640
 the truth

00:39:35.640 --> 00:39:35.980
 he has

00:39:35.980 --> 00:39:36.579
 power

00:39:36.579 --> 00:39:37.920
 and authority

00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:39.099

00:39:39.099 --> 00:39:40.000
 provide for

00:39:40.000 --> 00:39:40.820
 his servants

00:39:40.820 --> 00:39:41.500
 until he

00:39:41.500 --> 00:39:42.160
 calls us

00:39:42.160 --> 00:39:42.480
 home

00:39:42.480 --> 00:39:43.740
 and his

00:39:43.740 --> 00:39:44.460
 word will

00:39:44.460 --> 00:39:45.440
 bring grace

00:39:45.440 --> 00:39:46.200
 and life

00:39:46.200 --> 00:39:46.860
 to all who

00:39:50.960 --> 00:39:51.380
 us from

00:39:51.380 --> 00:39:52.019
 the grave

00:39:52.019 --> 00:39:53.160
 when he

00:39:53.160 --> 00:39:53.940
 comes again

00:39:53.940 --> 00:39:55.119
 have

00:40:23.239 --> 00:40:23.940

00:40:36.480 --> 00:40:37.000

00:40:53.139 --> 00:40:53.720
 world

00:40:53.720 --> 00:40:55.820
 offering new

 father from

00:41:24.579 --> 00:41:25.339
 before the

00:41:25.339 --> 00:41:26.259
 world began

00:41:26.259 --> 00:41:27.519
 by the

 power of
