Widow of Zarephath ( 1 King 17:8-16)

This is what happen when you believe God.

(1Ki 17:8)  Then the LORD said to Elijah,

(1Ki 17:9)  "Go to Zarephath in Sidon and stay there. There is a widow there that I commanded to take care of you."

(1Ki 17:10)  So Elijah went to Zarephath. He went to the town gate and saw a woman there gathering wood for a fire. She was a widow. Elijah said to her, "Would you bring me a small cup of water to drink?"

(1Ki 17:11)  As she was going to get the water, Elijah said, "Bring me a piece of bread too, please."

(1Ki 17:12)  The woman answered, "I promise you, before the LORD your God, that I have nothing but a handful of flour in a jar and a little bit of olive oil in a jug. I came here to gather a few pieces of wood for a fire to cook our last meal. My son and I will eat it and then die from hunger."

(1Ki 17:13)  Elijah said to the woman, "Don't worry. Go home and cook your food as you said. But first make a small piece of bread from the flour that you have and bring it to me. Then cook some for yourself and your son.

(1Ki 17:14)  The LORD, the God of Israel, says, 'That jar of flour will never be empty and the jug will always have oil in it. This will continue until the day the LORD sends rain to the land.'"

(1Ki 17:15)  So the woman went home and did what Elijah told her to do. And Elijah, the woman, and her son had enough food for a long time.

(1Ki 17:16)  The jar of flour and the jug of oil were never empty. This happened just as the LORD said through Elijah.
