  1. REPLENISH

  2. (1Ki 17:8-16) And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee. So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand. And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an 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. And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth. And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.

  3. (Jas 5:17) Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.

  7. (Pro 17:3) The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD trieth the hearts. (1Pe 1:7) That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

  8. (Job 23:10) But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. (Isa 48:10) Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.

  10. (1Ki 17:8) And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, (1Ki 17:9) Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.

  11. (Luk 4:24) And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country. (Luk 4:25) But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land; (Luk 4:26) But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.

  13. (1Ki 17:8) And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, (1Ki 17:9) Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.

  14. (Luk 8:2) And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils, (Luk 8:3) And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.

  18. (Jer 10:23) O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

  21. (1Ki 17:12) And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an 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.

  22. (Rom 1:17) For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. (Heb 10:38) Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

  23. The Destination he was sent. • The Discourse between them • The Demonstrated faith of this widow

  24. Not fearing the Circumstances

  25. (1Ki 17:13) And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

  26. (Lev 19:18) Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbouras thyself: I am the LORD.

  27. Not fearing the Circumstances • The blessing was Conditional

  28. (1Ki 17:13) And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

  29. (Mat 6:33) But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

  30. (Psa 84:11) For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. (Psa 34:9) O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

  31. Not fearing the Circumstances • The blessing was Conditional • The blessing was Continued

  32. (1Ki 17:14-16) For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth. And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.
