1Kgs.19.7 – And the angel of the LORD came back the second time, and touched him, and said, “Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for you.”
1Kgs.19.8 – So he arose, and ate and drank; and he went in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights as far as Horeb, the mountain of God.
*The source of our strength*. The angel of the lord instructs the prophet of GOD to wake up and eat, ‘cake and water’ for the purpose of the greatness of the journey that was ahead of this prophet to the mountain of GOD that is mountain ??? Horeb. As christians we have a purpose on this planet and a journey we should wade, but amidst or at the start of the journey the question is how far can we go, and what keeps us stronger and assures us sustainability, in the journey we have to take, the answer is right in our two title verses, “wake up and eat” we have to continue in the word of GOD because its our strength. The prophet ate cake and drank water. Cake represent s the word of GOD and water the spirit GOD, the bible tell us to come all who are thirsty and drink, and all who are hungry and eat, because a man does not live on bread ?? alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of our loving GOD. The prophet went as far as Mt. Horeb which was his destination, our destiny is subjected to the strength we will draw from the presence of God. Let us not move with starved spirits because the journey is great that has to be moved. *Golden Nugget*. Wake up and eat . *Prayer*. Thank you God for this word, and I decide to walk in the power of your mighty ????.
