God always provides!
1 Kings 17:2-6
Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah: “Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.” So he did what the LORD had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there. The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.

Praise our God for He is “Jehovah-Jireh”, the God who provides. Elijah has just announced to King Ahab that a severe drought will happen throughout the land and it will not rain save at Elijah’s command. Elijah, per the Lord’s direction, is supposed to go hide in a ravine. Get this; ravens are going to bring him food. This isn’t exactly normal raven behavior and it reveals God’s authority over all of creation. This is not to say that we should all move to ravines and wait for ravens to bring us food. This is another example to help our unbelief about who God is. God will provide!
