Nothingness to something...!

II Kings 4:1-7 NKJV

A certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the Lord . And the creditor is coming to take my two sons to be his slaves.” 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 #169. Do you know that out of nothing, God can create something? Let's pray. Father, You are the miracle working God. You can create something from nothing. We surrender our lives to You, so that You would create something out of it. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

When God created the world, it was void, empty, nothing. From nothingness He created you and me, the whole universe and every living being. When you are empty before God, from nothingness in you, God is able to create something extraordinary. There's a verse in bible which says, "what good can come out of Nazareth?" You may think what good can come out of you. Let me tell you something. When you empty yourselves before God and allow Him to do a new work in you, out of nothingness,  there can be something with God!

In today's verse we see a situation whereby a widow came to Elisha for help. A certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the Lord . And the creditor is coming to take my two sons to be his slaves.” She came and poured her sorrows and her problems to Elisha. The only question Elisha asked her was, “What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?” Today God is asking us the same question.  What do you have? God asked Moses, what do you have and Moses gave his staff and God did wonders through that staff. The boy with 5 loaves and 2 fish came to Jesus with what he had, and God turn it into an extraordinary miracle. You may think there's nothing to you, but actually you don't know that you have something which nobody has. The nothing you have can be something wonderful in the hands of God.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
