Take it upstairs

from Anchored in Troubled Waters Hosted by Pastor in the Shadow

Podcast Title: Take It Upstairs | Anchored in Troubled Waters | Season 9 Episode 25 Podcast Description: After God sustained the widow of Zarephath through famine, tragedy entered her home and her son died. Elijah took the child from her arms, carried him into the upper room, and cried unto the Lord. In this message, we look at what to do when trouble enters a place God has blessed, when pain raises difficult questions, and when the burden is beyond our ability to repair. When we cannot fix it downstairs, we can still take it upstairs in prayer. Alternate Podcast Description 2: The widow of Zarephath had already seen God sustain her home through famine, but then tragedy came and her son died. Elijah took the child into the upper room and cried unto the Lord. This message explores honest prayer, persistent faith, and what it means to carry burdens into God’s presence when human strength and understanding have reached their end. Alternate Podcast Description 3: What do we do when pain enters a house God has blessed? In 1 Kings 17, Elijah takes an impossible burden upstairs and places it before the Lord. This message reminds us that prayer does not require polished words, grief does not disqualify faith, and no burden is too heavy to bring before the throne of grace.
