The LORD told Elijah,
Abraham named that place “The LORD will Provide”. And even now people say, “On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided.”
Later, the LORD said to Elijah,
But after a while, it dried up because there was no rain.
“Go to the town of Zarephath in Sidon and live there. I've told a widow in that town to give you food.”
When the poor and needy are dying of thirst and cannot find water, I, the LORD God of Israel, will come to their rescue. I won't forget them.
That should make you feel like saying, “The Lord helps me! Why should I be afraid of what people can do to me?”
