“So he went and did according unto the word of the Lord: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan” (1 Kings 17:5).
Elijah’s prophecy of three years without rain began to affect food and water supplies. Obviously all the water did not evaporate as the famine began. As food was becoming scarce, God led Elijah to the Brook Cherith so He could provide for him. God could have used angels to minister to him. In His power and wisdom, He chose to use unclean, greedy ravens to give him nourishment. When we go through difficult times, feeling there is no way out, God will use whatever means to show us to depend only on Him.
