God can answer our prayers through His miraculous intervention, but He also can use practical means, as we see illustrated today. Elisha is responsible for the company of prophets who travel with him, and when they have to scavenge for food in a famine-affected land, one of the servants gathers some wild gourds for them to eat. Scripture to consider: Ps. 77:13–14; Jer. 32:16–17; Matt. 17:17–20; John 4:46–48
