The earthen vessels...!

II Kings 4:2-7 NKJV

So Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?” And she said, “Your maidservant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil.” Then he said, “Go, borrow vessels from everywhere, from all your neighbors—empty vessels; do not gather just a few. And when you have come in, you shall shut the door behind you and your sons; then pour it into all those vessels, and set aside the full ones.” So she went from him and shut the door behind her and her sons, who brought the  vessels to her; and she poured it out. Now it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, “Bring me another vessel.” And he said to her, “ There  is not another vessel.” So the oil ceased. 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 live on the rest.”

Shalom! Day #120. Do you know that you have treasures in earthen vessels? Let's pray. Father, we pray today that let us not run out of oil but let there be a continuous supply of it. Thank You Lord. In Jesus name we pray, amen!

The Hebrew word for oil is "SHEMEN." Oil is used for cooking, medicament or for anointing. We have kept the oil in the earthen jars and have not use it. Here Elisha is asking that certain women to borrow vessels from her neighbour because God is about to do something extraordinary with the jar of oil she has. What are we doing with our treasure in the earthen jar? Are we using it to see the unstoppable blessings of God or we are just keeping it safe and secured and there is no multiplication taking place?

II Corinthians 4:7 NKJV

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.

Make sure you are not run out of your oil. There are a lot of empty vessels that needs to be filled. We are the oil and the empty vessels are souls that are longing to be filled. As you keep on pouring and pouring and pouring, there will be souls be filled. When you invest you time, money, talents, blessings into the lives of unbelievers, you shall see a great return. A great harvest. The jar of oil you have can do wonders when it's in the hands of God.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
