Receive the Oil of Provision with More Containers!
“Now a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, “Your servant my husband is dead. You know that your servant feared Yahweh. Now the creditor has come to take for himself my two children to be slaves.” Elisha said to her, “What should I do for you? Tell me: what do you have in the house?” She said, “Your servant has nothing in the house, except a pot of oil.” Then he said, “Go, borrow empty containers from of all your neighbors. Don’t borrow just a few containers. Go in and shut the door on you and on your sons, and pour oil into all those containers; and set aside those which are full.” So she went from him, and shut the door on herself and on her sons. They brought the containers to her, and she poured oil. When the containers were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another container.” He said to her, “There isn’t another container.” Then the oil stopped flowing. Then she came and told the man of God. He said, “Go, sell the oil, and pay your debt; and you and your sons live on the rest.”” (2 Kings 4:1-7 WEB)
Are you in a desperate, financially-pressed situation?
In such a situation, God can do a multiplication miracle for you.
He will bless what you have in your house, in your hand, or in your sphere of connection.
If you have a business, He will grant your business favor.
If you are working a job, He will give you favor with your boss to get a promotion.
If you know someone who has a surplus of provision, the Holy Spirit may prompt him/her to bless you with an amount.
See what the Holy Spirit is saying to you now through the passage above: “Don’t just borrow a few containers.”
These containers represents your prayer requests. Don’t just ask for small things.
Instead of asking “God, I just need enough to clear my debt this month,” ask Him to increase your income so that you can meet your family’s needs and still have lots to spare to bless your local church and help the needy.
It’s time to enlarge your vision not for selfish purposes, but to increase your capacity to be a blessing to others.
“You lust, and don’t have. You murder and covet, and can’t obtain. You fight and make war. You don’t have, because you don’t ask. You ask, and don’t receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it for your pleasures.” (James 4:2-3 WEB)
Don’t let there be a situation whereby there isn’t another container. If you don’t ask, the oil stops flowing.
You don’t receive because you don’t ask.
Keep asking and asking boldly, trusting that God’s oil of supply will keep flowing in your life to provide for all your needs!
I pray the blessing of the apostle John over you that you will prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers through receiving God’s word!
The apostle Peter said that grace and shalom peace are multiplied to us in the revelational knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ.
The more you see and believe, the more of God’s abundant blessings you experience!
