MORE THAN ENOUGH!

Text : 2 Kings 4:3 

He told her, “Go out to all of your neighbors in the surrounding streets and borrow lots of pots from them. Don't get just a few empty vessels, either.

Today, we shall be looking at the story of the widow in our text from another perspective. Though, she experienced the miracle of provisions, but she did not experience the God of more than enough in all His entirety. 

One's mindset is a great hindrance to experiencing all of God.
Mindset is the very barrier that keeps one from seeing God as He ought to be seen. God is willing to achieve great things and do the impossible through you, but for your mindset.

Although, the widow in our text experienced a great miracle of God's provisions, but she did not reach the point of more than enough.

She couldn't enter into the realm of "more than enough" because of her mindset. The prophet told her that she should "Go, borrow vessels from everywhere, from all her neighbors—empty vessels; and that she should not gather just a few."

The woman's mindset defined how much oil is enough and not God. In the same way, it is your mindset that defines what is enough and not God. When God gives you a promise, do ensure you don't allow your mind to place a lid upon the promise, rather, you must allow the channel of your spirit to open up to God's flow of abundance.

 *God can do much more than you could imagine, do not limit Him with your mindset* .

Simply trust Him who is able to do exceedingly* *abundantly above all that you ask or think.

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us._ (Ephesians  3:20).

Bible Reading:2 Kings 4:1-7.

PRAYER FOCUS

1 ) Father God, please enlarge my capacity to receive all that you have in store for me.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
