Time To Eat! Find all of the ravens with food for Elijah.
Give a Ravens Feed Elijah Page to each child. Provide black and assorted colors of crayons, colored pencils, or markers to the children. Have children search for all of the ravens that are carrying bread and meat to Elijah in their beaks, and color them black. Then have the children share the location of the ravens on their pages. Use the key to verify their findings. Children may then color the entire page.
1. The ravens didn’t just come one time—God had them on a schedule! By His command, they brought bread and meat each morning and evening until Elijah left that place. (See 1 Kings 17:4–6.) How can that help you trust God to provide for you? He can do anything through anything or anyone; it shows His care and love for us.
2. How do you think it would feel to have a flock of birds bring you food? Strange, weird, a little afraid or nervous, uncomfortable, kind of gross.
Even in a severe drought and famine, God is the source of all we need and is able to provide for His people. Let’s say our SuperVerse together. Philippians 4:19:
