“What’s God Doing?”

The story of Obadiah (not even the prophet Obadiah, but the Obadiah in Elijah’s narrative) is easy to overlook. It’s tucked away in the shadows between two of the most epic stories in the bible. Yet, this seemingly insignificant story exemplifies an important principle about how God operates. He does big miraculous things through his people, often in unexpected ways. This story provides a clear example of how—wherever God has you—you might not realize what God is doing with what you’re doing.
