Sunday School Lesson October 13 2019 Blessed for Faithfulness / Active Faith

Hello Sunday school teachers, preachers, and students! Welcome to SundaySchoolPreacher.com. What man in his right mind, asks a woman to feed him first, before she feeds her ONLY child her last meal? If he’s in his right mind the answer is clearly a man with a LOT of faith. This week I show how both the prophet Elijah and the unnamed widow of Zarephath are blessed for faithfulness. They have active faith in God’s provision. Elijah travels a great distance only to learn that the woman God commanded to feed him had just a handful of food. I believe it took a great deal of faith for Elijah to ask this nameless widow to feed him first. I also believe it took even more faith for the nameless widow to actually follow Elijah’s instructions.
