Shift into Neutral

Wrong but unlikely.

Thanks for joining me for today's encouragement from Our Daily Bread. I entitled this devotional shift into neutral.

The man ahead of me at the car wash was on a mission.

He purposely strode to the back of his pickup and removed the hitch so wouldn't snag a high-powered ruling brushes. He paid the attendant been pulled onto the automated track where he left his truck and drive the attendant shouted after him neutral neutral for the man's windows were up and he couldn't hear.

He zipped to the car wash in four seconds flat. His truck barely got wet. Elijah was on a mission to he was busy serving God and big ways. He had just defeated the prophets of bail in a supernatural showdown which left him drained, he needed time in neutral God brought Elijah to mount Horeb where he had appeared to Moses long before once again God shook the mountain, but he wasn't in the rock shattering wind earthquake or raging fire. Instead, God came to Elijah in a gentle whisper when Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out to meet God. You and I are on a mission. We put our lives and drive to accomplish big things for our Savior but we never shift down to neutral we can zipped through life in this the outpouring of the Spirit God whispers. Be still and know that I am God neutral neutral.

Today's Our Daily Bread devotional Scripture reading is from first Kings chapter 19 verses 9 to 12 and 15 through 18 there, he went into a cave and spent the night in the ward of the Lord came to him. What are you doing here, Elijah.

He replied I have been very zealous for the Lord God Almighty, the Israelites have rejected your covenant, torn down your altars and put your profits to death with the sword.

I am the only one left another trying to kill me to the Lord said go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord for the Lord is about to pass by the great and powerful window toward the mountains apart and shatter the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind after the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was, not in the earthquake after the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire after the fire came a gentle whisper picking up with verse 15 the Lord said to him, go back to where you came and go to the desert of Damascus when you get there annoyed hostile king over Erin also anoint Jay Huson of Nipsey king over Israel and Elisha, son of Shabbat from a bell a whole lot to succeed US profit J he will put to death.

Any who escaped the sword of Cozumel and Elisha will put to death. Any who escaped the sword of J if I reserve 7000 in Israel, all whose knees have not bowed down to bail his malls have not kissed.
