Sticks, Meal, Oil, and Faith

Elijah trusted the promise of God to feed him as he asked the poor widow woman for a morsel of bread. A God the widow knew very little about had told her to give what little food she had to a prophet she knew nothing about. 

1 Kings 17:12 And she said, As The Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but a handful of meal in a barrel and a little oil in a cruse: and behold, I am gathering two sticks that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it and die.

"Give me what you have," he said, "and then fix for you and your son."

So she cooked her last meal for Elijah. The next three years Almighty God miraculously replenished the meal and oil after each meal. When we put our sticks, meal, and oil in the hands of God, He will do the impossible.

Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee and shew thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not.

Got any rivers you think are uncrossable

Got any mountains you can't tunnel through

God specializes in things thought impossible

He'll do for you what no other man can do.
