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 little oil." Elisha said, "Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don't ask for just a few. 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." (2Kings.4.2 -4 NIV)
Explicitly speaking we came into this world with nothing, yet God has given us all things. The way to possess what God has given us is where we miss it out.
God has given us one and only one thing that is the most important of all things —the Spirit. A man who has nothing at all except the anointing of God can have all things.
The woman had only a little oil in her jar. No riches, no assets; nothing at all in her name or the late husband's name. But the oil was sufficient to settle all her problems.
We might be struggling with luck or insufficiencies but God has given us His oil. What you do with the Spirit of God in you defines how much you will possess in your life.
Elisha instructed the widow to go inside and shut the door behind her and her sons. Then pour oil into all the jars. You have one task to do: enter your alter and pour out the Spirit of God in you into all things that you want to see prosper.
The children of Israel went into Egypt with nothing, but only the covenant and promise of God [Genesis 15.18]. By the time they came out, they had great possession[Exodus 1.7].
Numbers.24.7 Their buckets will brim with water, their seed will spread life everywhere. Their king will tower over Agag and his ilk, their kingdom surpassingly majestic. (MSB)
The life of God–zoe– is in you. And God you can cause this very life to flow into anything and everywhere.
Hallelujah!
