Then the word of the LORD came to him, saying, “Get away from here and turn eastward, and hide by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan. And it will be that you shall drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.” So he went and did according to the word of the LORD, for he went and stayed by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan. The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening; and he drank from the brook. And it happened after a while that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.

Elijah was a prophet (that’s someone chosen by God to tell people what God wants to say to them). Many people had turned away from God and were not doing what God wanted. This three-day children’s reading plan tells what happened when Elijah gave God’s message! The plan complements the free children’s game app Guardians of Ancora .
Like Elijah, the prophet, we have found ourselves in a cave, isolated from society. In these moments of detachment from our routine behaviors, we must train ourselves to take heed to where the Holy Spirit beckons our attention. When we learn to listen to that still small voice, God will enable us to fulfill our purpose in Him.
We all need to develop an appetite for hearing God’s voice. However, to recognize God’s voice and be led by God’s Spirit, we must take the posture of obedience.
