Presented at Curwensville Alliance on 8/16/26 by Pastor Steve Shields.
How is your walk with Christ? Listen as Pastor Steve goes through 1 Kings 17-19 showing the highs and lows of Elijah.
Elijah was called to confront a sinful leader. Then he was fed miraculously. Both of those events were highs. Then his livelihood evaporates, which was a definite low. Then God surprised him with goodness. Then God is labeled as evil by those around him. A definite low in life. But God shows His love. A definite high. Then God honored his faith filled risk, which was both a high and a low. Followed by another high when God honored his prayer for grace. Then Elijah felt like it was all for nothing, a definite low. But God gives hope when Elijah looks to Him. Yet again a high in the life of Elijah.
What do we do with a life of highs and lows on this journey we call our faith? We celebrate the highs. We find joy in what God has done. Then we investigate the lows. We look to see what God might be doing. Leave judgement with God. Trust Him to be good and do what is right.
