Abraham gave God his only son Isaac and he became the father of all nations
The widow of zeraphat prepared her last meal for the servant of God and she never lacked for food through out famine
If you want a blessing from God, the question is what do you have in your hands. so whatever you have in your hands will serve as a seed. In 2kings 4
One day the wife of a man from the guild of
prophets called out to Elisha, “Your servant my
husband is dead. You well know what a good man
he was, devoted to GOD. And now the man to
whom he was in debt is on his way to collect by
taking my two children as slaves.”
Elisha said, “I wonder how I can be of help. Tell
me, what do you have in your house?”
“Nothing,” she said. “Well, I do have a little oil.”
“Here’s what you do,” said Elisha. “Go up and
down the street and borrow jugs and bowls from
all your neighbors. And not just a few—all you can
get. Then come home and lock the door behind
you, you and your sons. Pour oil into each
container; when each is full, set it aside.”
She did what he said. She locked the door
behind her and her sons; as they brought the
containers to her, she filled them. When all the
jugs and bowls were full, she said to one of her
sons, “Another jug, please.”
He said, “That’s it. There are no more jugs.”
Then the oil stopped.
She went and told the story to the man of God.
He said, “Go sell the oil and make good on your
debts. Live, both you and your sons, on what’s
left.”
She had a something in her hands before she could be a supplier of oil.
Brethren sow a seed today. Sow a seed towards your carrier, towards your academics, towards your finances. Your seed will speak for you when you're absent.
One more thing, did you know when you come into the presense of God, God dosent let you God empty handed.
Luke 9:12
after Jesus had taught the multitude, he didn't let them go insearch of food for themselves because it was a deserted land. He asked his disciples to group the people in 50's and he fed performed a miracle and they ate till they were filled and there were even left overs. David said a day in the presense of God is better than a thousand days else where.
In 2 kings 4:8-17
One day Elisha went to Shunem. And a well-to-
do woman was there, who urged him to stay for a
meal. So whenever he came by, he stopped there
to eat. She said to her husband, “I know that
this man who often comes our way is a holy man
of God. Let’s make a small room on the roof
and put in it a bed and a table, a chair and a lamp
for him. Then he can stay there whenever he
comes to us.”
One day when Elisha came, he went up to his
room and lay down there. He said to his
servant Gehazi, “Call the Shunammite.” So he
called her, and she stood before him. Elisha
said to him, “Tell her, ‘You have gone to all this
trouble for us. Now what can be done for you?
Can we speak on your behalf to the king or the
commander of the army?’”
She replied, “I have a home among my own
people.”
“What can be done for her?” Elisha asked.
Gehazi said, “She has no son, and her husband is
old.”
Then Elisha said, “Call her.” So he called her,
and she stood in the doorway. “About this
time next year,” Elisha said, “you will hold a son
in your arms.”
“No, my lord!” she objected. “Please, man of God,
don’t mislead your servant!”
But the woman became pregnant, and the next
year about that same time she gave birth to a
son, just as Elisha had told her.
She just offered to help bless the man of God and the man of God searched out the blessing the woman needed at that time , even though it seemed too late for her.
Bless a man of God today.
