1 Kings 17:5---So
he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by
the brook Cherith that is before Jordan.
As
messengers of God, we will often lead lonely lives.
“All men
forsook me,” said Paul.
It is the 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.
No one but a
pastor or preacher of the Gospel understands this loneliness and burden.
How
wonderful it is to be ministered to by the Spirit of God.
