About this Bible story

In 1 Kings 17, the prophet Elijah visits a widow in Zarephath. She only has a little flour and oil left, but Elijah reassures her that 'the jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not run dry.' Her faith leads to a miraculous provision.

β€œThe jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not run dry.”

β€” 1 Kings 17:14 (NIV)

How to Use These Coloring Pages

While the kids are coloring, ask them how they feel when they have to share something precious, like the widow did with her last meal. Highlight the moment when Elijah assures her about God's provision. Prepare some extra crayons or colored pencils for a follow-up activity where they can create their own illustrations of faith.
