1 Kings 19:10 And I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.
Elijah was convinced, the only man of God left in the world was him. Imagine it, the only ministry still preaching righteousness and standing up to a corrupt system. What a humbling revelation in 1 Kings, God had 7,000 in Israel who had not bowed to Baal.
You may be a great quarterback, but you’re not the whole team – God has others! Consequently, we fall into the trap sometimes that we are the only ones who care or know how to pray. We see the future no one else does. Let’s check our hearts… God has others. He uses other Churches even though not exactly like us or the same beliefs as us.
Today, ask God for the grace to first recognize His work in others. Then, reach out to them in His love.
