13 MIRACLES BEHIND CLOSED DOORS - "Go Sell the Oil"
Description
DON'T ASK FOR MONEY FROM GOD...HE DOES NOT HAVE IT. Rather, ask for innovative methods and solutions that will bring you money. The Widow of 2 Kings 4:1-7 asked for assistance to pay her debt and the prophet gave her a business action plan, miraculously endorsed by God. What was thus miraculously produced by the widow behind closed doors was no doubt very good and excellent, and would fetch a good price. She turned oil into money to pay her debts and to live out of it. After implementing it and filling all jars, the Bible is clear that she did not feel entitled to make use of the oil which she had got by the Prophet's instrumentality without first telling him and receiving his directions respecting it. The BIBLE says, 2 Kings 4:6-7, "When the vessels were full, she said to her son, "Bring me another vessel." And he said to her, "There is not one vessel more." And the oil stopped. 7 Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, "Go, sell the oil and pay your debt, and you and your sons can live on the rest." The oil in the vessels was more than sufficient for the discharge of the debt. The prophet directs the woman to sell the whole, and, after satisfying the claim of her creditor with part of the money, to support herself and her children on the remainder. Your vision is your provision - make use of the gifts God gave to create wealth and to live out of it.
