Bishop W. F. Houston, Jr.’s Daily Devotional “The Isolated Life of God’s Servants” 1 Kings 17:5 (NCV) 5 So Elijah did what the Lord said; he went to Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and lived there. You know beloved, as messengers of God, we will often lead lonely lives. Paul said: “All men forsook me.” It is a price we have to pay, there is a loneliness in the Gospel. Yet you will not be alone, because you will be ministered to by the Spirit of God, as Elijah was ministered to at the brook Cherith. A true messenger lives a burdened life. If he is the Lord’s vessel, he carries in his heart a burden for souls none can share but those who know it firsthand. Beloved, Just as Your Spirit took care of Elijah, know that you are not alone in Your service, for the almighty God. Have a blessed Weekend.
