What I have tonight is really not really a teaching, I don't think I've done this too much.

I've never done it in leaders' advance that I know. At least I don't think it's a teaching.

I have a prophetic word that is going to kind of come in in a form of teaching.

You'll turn to 1 Kings chapter 17.

When Danny and I were in South Africa, we went to two churches.

One in, I'm sorry, helped me derb in and the other was in Johannesburg, right?

One of the churches, I got up to preach and maybe 10 minutes before I got up to preach, I felt like the Lord, well he totally changed my message,

but I didn't feel like it was just a teaching message. I felt like it was an exhortation and a prophetic declaration over the body.

Tonight I feel prompted to kind of share some of this message with you and what the see where it goes.

In 1 Kings chapter 17, it's a story of Elisha and I'm sure you're familiar with the story, but we'll just start from verse 1 and read a little bit here.

Elisha, the Tishbite was one of the settlers, everybody say settlers. How many you know the prophets need to be settlers?

They need to be people who settle down. The outhouse prophets are, that era is over.

We need in-house prophets who actually want to be a part of the body.

He was one of the settlers of Gillette and said to A-Hab, as the Lord God of Israel lives before whom I stand, sure there shall be no due or rain these years except by my word.

The word Lord, then the word Lord came to him saying, go from here and turn eastward and hide yourself at the Brook Chara, which is east of the Jordan.

It shall be that you shall drink of the Brook that I have command the Ravens to bribe for you there.

He went there and did according to the word of the Lord and before he went and lived by the Brook Chara, which is east of the Jordan.

The Ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening. He would drink and eat from the Brook.

He would eat and drink from the Brook. He would drink from the Brook, so what it actually says.

Because you can't eat in the Brook unless there's fish in the Brook, which you probably didn't think of.

And it happened after a while that the Brook dried up because there was no rain in the land.

And the Lord said to him, I want you to go arise and go to Zerath, which belongs to Simeon, and stay there and behold I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.
