Elijah | Trusting God When the Brook Runs Dry (week 2)

Have you ever felt like you did everything right — you obeyed God, followed His leading, prayed, tithed — and yet, life got harder? The job fell through. The brook ran dry. You’re not alone.

In this message from our Elijah series, we explore 1 Kings 17:7–24 — where God calls Elijah to a place called Zarephath (which literally means "refinery") and leads him into one of the most desperate, yet faith-defining seasons of his life.
In a land of famine and uncertainty, Elijah learns that obedience doesn’t always come with immediate reward, trust is often built one surrender at a time, and that God is still in the business of bringing dead things back to life.
This message will challenge you to reflect on your own Zarephath — the places where you feel stuck, refined, or on the brink of giving up. You’ll be encouraged by Elijah’s humanity, the widow’s faith, and God’s power to resurrect what feels lost.
Because Elijah was a man just like us. And the same God who worked in him is still working in you.
