Why the brook dries up…

1457703_10151998690319936_903151004_nWhy the brook dries up…Many are finding unique fulfillment in the promise of 2013 as the year 5773 that corresponds with the word “Camel” based on the “3” that corresponds with “GIMEL”….meaning your provision, connection, is coming toward you much like the camel that was considered the “cruise ship of the dessert” that brought kings toward the place where Christ was promised to be born.
So many have testified of progress this year in their prophetic birthing of Gods promises to them, yet others have said…”where are my camels?”
I am reminded of Elijah the Prophet of Israel who was told to go to a brook where provision was made to sustain the man of God during a famine. Ravens brought the prophet meat as he drank from the brook. One day the brook dried up.
1 Kings 17:9 says that God gave new direction for the Prophet when the old provision dried up.
What does it mean when the source of your provision dries up? It means God is moving you to a new and better situation!
Mathew Henry says this about Verses:8-16:
“Many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, and some, it is likely, would have bidden him welcome to their houses; yet he is sent to honour and bless with his presence a city of Sidon, a Gentile city, and so becomes the first prophet of the Gentiles.”
Jesus spoke about this unusual sign: “But I say to you in truth, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut up for three years and six months, when a great famine came over all the land; and yet Elijah was sent to none of them, but only to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow.…” Luke 4:25
When the old source dried up God caused the man of God to cross over into a realm outside of the RELIGIOUS SYSTEMS of that day. A Gentile woman and her son will be taken care of along with the Prophet!
God is causing many of you to BECOME THE CAMEL that goes outside the traditional boundaries of the Jewish people and into the FUTURE where the Gospel will go….into all the world.
Don't think it strange if God uses your existing circumstance to move you into a new connection in places you never dreamed of. God has already commanded things to line up for you. You will have provision in new places where the Gospel has never gone.
If your camel has not come, get ready to leave what isn't working and move to the place of greater provision. When you meet your new house you'll make new friends and find new abundance.
Feel free to like and share this with other camels…getting over the hump!
