Cross Church

Summary
Teaching from 1 Kings 17, the sermon emphasizes that obedience to God's calling opens the door to supernatural provision. Through Elijah's trust and a widow's willingness to give despite her scarcity, listeners learn that saying "yes, Lord" activates God's provision in finances, time, commitment, and spiritual gifts.
Highlights
Trusting God for provision is one of the most challenging and also one of the most rewarding aspects of the Christian life.
When you just simply step out and say God I'm gonna take you at your word and you just say two simple words: Yes, Lord.
I give because I need to give. It is a constant check on my heart for greed, telling God that I am not the owner—I'm just a steward.
