REVEALED WORD TODAY

// READ II Kings 4:1-7 //
4 The wife of a man from the company of the prophets cried out to Elisha, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that he revered the Lord. But now his creditor is coming to take my two boys as his slaves.”

2 Elisha replied to her, “How can I help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?”

“Your servant has nothing there at all,” she said, “except a small jar of olive oil.”

3 Elisha said, “Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don’t ask for just a few. 4 Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side.”

5 She left him and shut the door behind her and her sons. They brought the jars to her and she kept pouring. 6 When all the jars were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another one.”

But he replied, “There is not a jar left.” Then the oil stopped flowing.

7 She went and told the man of God, and he said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debts. You and your sons can live on what is left.”

MEDITATION:
The reasons why many people remain poor could be seen from this passage.
1. IGNORANCE: Not knowing what you have like this woman that had a pot of oil and she called it nothing.
2. When opportunities dresses in the garment of challenges like David before Goliath, if you cannot see beyond it you will not get the opportunity.

PRAYER: I receive opening of eyes to see opportunities when they come.
