When Fear Takes Over - Unshakable - Part Two

NOTES :

Elijah was afraid and fled for his life. He went to Beersheba, a town in Judah, and he left his servant there. Then he went on alone into the wilderness, traveling all day. He sat down under a solitary broom tree and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, LORD,” he said. “Take my life, for I am no better than my ancestors who have already died.”

1 Kings 19:3–4 (NLT)

There he came to a cave, where he spent the night. But the LORD said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”

1 Kings 19:9 (NLT)

“Go out and stand before me on the mountain,” the LORD told him. And as Elijah stood there, the LORD passed by, and a mighty windstorm hit the mountain. It was such a terrible blast that the rocks were torn loose, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. And after the earthquake there was a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire there was the sound of a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his cloak and went out and stood at the entrance of the cave. And a voice said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”

1 Kings 19:11–13 (NLT)

STAND ON TRUTH, NOT FEELINGS.

LEAN INTO COMMUNITY, NOT ISOLATION.

RECALIBRATE, DON’T RETREAT.

 

BOTTOM LINE:
When you feel like it’s OVER, God’s not DONE.

THE CHALLENGE: 
Get UP.
