Just like Elijah was under the broom tree feeling depressed, defeated, and scared by the weight of his calling, in that moment of loneliness and isolation, the most glorious thing occurred: God revealed Himself to him!
Keep seeking God and keep looking up!
He is coming!
When Elijah was under the broom tree, it was a moment of deep despair and isolation. He was fleeing from the threats of Queen Jezebel, who sought to take his life.
Under that tree, he felt defeated and burdened by the weight of his prophetic calling. He was in a state of profound depression, to the extent that he even wished for death and had lost his appetite."But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness and came and sat down under a broom tree.
And he prayed that he might die, and said, “It is enough! Now, Lord, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers!" 1 Kings 19:4
During this time, God took care of Elijah and provided for his needs. While he was asleep, the angel of the Lord touched him, and miraculously, there appeared a freshly baked cake and water for him to eat. God took care of his physical well-being before taking care of his spiritual state.
After Elijah was nourished, he went into the cave and God revealed Himself to him.
There was a powerful wind, an earthquake, and a fire, but God was not in any of these dramatic displays. Instead, Elijah experienced God in a still, small voice.
This encounter renewed his faith and sense of purpose, reassuring him that he was not alone and had a divine mission to fulfill. It was a turning point in Elijah's life.
We have a mission to complete, and those who find themselves "under the broom tree", have no doubt that God will provide for your earthly needs in a miraculous way. Then, in that gentle, small voice, He will speak to you, giving you the faith and strength required to fulfill your purpose, and finish this race strongly!
In the meanwhile, let's do what Jude said: "But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life." Jude 20
And stay away from those that Jude predicted we would face at the end!"These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they mouth great swelling words, flattering people to gain advantage." Jude 16
Trust in the Lord, listen to the still small voice, receive His word - and keep looking up!
HE IS COMING!

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." (John 3:16-18)
