Hearing the Gentle Spirit of God

Pastor Denis Federau

1.  In 1 Kings 19:1–8, how does God respond to Elijah’s fear,
     exhaustion, and discouragement? What does this reveal
     about God’s character and care for us?

2.  God asks Elijah twice, “What are you doing here?” What
     might God have wanted Elijah to recognize about his
     circumstances, his fears, and his understanding of the
     situation?

3.  Why do you think God was not in the wind, earthquake,
     or fire, but spoke through a gentle whisper? What
     helps—or prevents—us from hearing God’s gentle voice
     today?

4.  Elijah wanted to remain under the broom tree and later
     inside the cave, but God called him to continue his
     journey. Where might comfort, fear, or discouragement
     keep us from following God into something new?

5.  As Clearbrook MB enters a season of transition, how can
    we make room—personally and together—for the Holy
    Spirit to provide strength, direction, healing, and unity?
    What is one practical step we could take?
