The power of the Lord was upon Elijah (1
Kings 18:46). Yet only one chapter over we find Elijah hiding from
Jezebel's threats; pleading with the Lord to end his life. Too often we
allow the enemy's voice to override God’s. Satan takes pleasure in
paralyzing us by circumstances. He knows in believing the lie, we will go into
hiding and abort our call. The Lord's will for our life will be
blinded by the darkness of our untamed thoughts and anxieties that rapidly
breed in our minds. Enough is enough. There is a secure Hand of
provision and help just beyond these looming shadows. There is
light; there is love; there is hope just outside the cave.
Father, forgive us for
allowing doubt and fear to enter our hearts. We let the voice of
fear, the voice of others, the voice of the enemy to muffle Your voice.
Your voice that was once so clear to us becomes a forgotten sound. Your
power that defeated circumstances in our lives becomes a doubted memory.
Your faithfulness proven again and again becomes an overlooked blessing.
We cast away all doubt and we choose to believe Your promises.
We incline our ears to You once again. Speak to us, Lord...
