1 Kings 19:5-8

1 Kings 19:5-8. And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat. And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink and laid him down again. And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat, because the journey in too great for thee. And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.

When he was hungry before, ravens fed him; but now an angel ministers to his wants. God uses all sorts of messengers, and means, so that his children may be provided for. This man’s one meal lasted him through a fast of forty days and forty nights; and, dear friend, if God giveth not bread to thee, he can take away thy hunger, so that thou hast no need to eat and drink.
