Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
Character Studies From The Bible
Elijah
2 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah: 3 Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. 4 You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.
5 So he did what the Lord had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there. 6 The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.
(1 Kings 17)

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
God used a very unique way to provide food for the Prophet Elijah. Ravens, which carry a negative connotation in our own time, (and probably back then too) kept Elijah alive by bringing him bread and meat in the morning and evening. A Raven appears in Scripture back in Genesis, as the first creature Noah released from the Ark, but unlike the Dove, did not return. Now we see Ravens returning faithfully twice a day!
Because the Raven is a scavenger, and has a menacing appearance, it has come to symbolize Death in our own culture. Edgar Allen Poe's poem "The Raven" didn't help this bird's reputation at all, and Ravens figure prominently in Victorian funerary art. It is not far-fetched to posit that the Ancient Hebrews saw the Raven in a similar light.
Imagine that the first time the Ravens approached Elijah! It must have been a scary sight.
Perhaps (My Own Opinion...not Scripture!) the Lord was showing Elijah that he must depend upon the Lord for Everything, even when it looks like a frightening situation. Perhaps it was a lesson that Elijah must "die to himself" and let God be his Provider.
Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM! And for the Preservation of the Valiant Israeli Nation!
"AND the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,
Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
So he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.."
1 Kings 17:2-6 (KJV)
