2 Kings 4:7 NLT
When she told the man of God what had happened, he said to her, “Now sell the olive oil and pay your debts, and you and your sons can live on what is left over.”
Good morning and praise God. I hope you are having a great day. Hallelujah.
In our devotion today we look into the story of a poor widow and Elisha. Her husband was one of those who served Elisha before he died leaving her in debt. A creditor was already threatening to take her two son as payment for the debt. She only had a flask of olive oil with her. Elisha told her to borrow many jar and from that small flask flowed oil that filled all other jars she borrowed.
She was now rich in olive oil but she didn't just start doing anything with it. She went back to Elisha and asked what she should do and so Elisha told her to sell and clear her debt and live on the rest.
We serve God who is not limited brethren. We are not ones who goes around corrupting ourselves in order to earn a living. We have a Father who fed 5,000 men with five loaves of bread and two fish. The sweetest part is that he doesn't just feed our hungry stomachs but also our hungry souls! A thing that natural food will never do.
We therefore worship:
"Guide me, O my great Redeemer,
pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but you are mighty;
hold me with your powerful hand.
Bread of heaven, bread of heaven,
feed me now and evermore,
feed me now and evermore."
Let not the enemy remind you of that debt of sin but rather focus to the cross of Calvary where all was paid by Savior Jesus.
"Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow."
When you focus to your Savior Jesus and and obey the leading of Holy Spirit in you, you'll have solutions even with the smallest thing you have today. That small flask of oil is enough with Him. For the rich who have been corrupted by their riches it will be easier for a camel through needle's eye into God's presence. It will not be so to you who have trusted in God like Job. You who knows that all good things comes from the LORD. You who have refused to be corrupted by the enemy's delicacies but rather choosen to even suffer along the way in order to please your maker!
Brethren, keep walking with the master. Trust in His providence. God loves you, have a blessed day. Shalom. Shalom.
