ANNUAL THEME: RETURN TO ME AND I WILL RETURN TO YOU
*Theme; "*WISDOM....THE BIBLICAL ECONOMIC PRINCIPLE OF GOD FOR WEALTH*
Part 15.
Dear Beloved Saints, good morning. Open door for your Divine Prosperity and Stewardship continues.
Looking at *MIRACLE OF SERVING ELIJAH AND ELISHA*
Today we look at ELIJAH OR ELISHA Principle.
This Wealth transfer Principle is not known by many people. There are things that are given and answered by this Divine Principle. Hana got her barrenness terminated as she brought sacrifice to Shiloh and remained at the temple praying.
The woman at Zarephath got her end flour and oil keep coming without end for three years and her son was raised back from the dead. Without ministering to o God through His Servant Elijah, she would have died of hunger and even the son would have died with the hunger or even later without being raised from the dead.
This Principle when used it brings unique and uncommon blessing that you may know or not realise as you minister to God through your Elijah. Let us look at Elisha.
Provision and Hospitality to Elisha. God was watching and had prepared a surprise gift.
*Now it happened one day that Elisha went to Shunem, where there was a notable woman, and she persuaded him to eat some food. So it was, as often as he passed by, he would turn in there to eat some food. And she said to her husband, “Look now, I know that this is a holy man of God, who passes by us regularly.*
She turned her home a hotel for Elisha. Giving spirit.
*Please, let us make a small upper room on the wall; and let us put a bed for him there, and a table and a chair and a lampstand; so it will be, whenever he comes to us, he can turn in there.”*
II Kings 4:8-10 NKJV
Elisha is so happy and feels time has come for her to receive a reward from the Lord God of Elisha.
*And it happened one day that he came there, and he turned in to the upper room and lay down there. Then he said to Gehazi his servant, “Call this Shunammite woman.” When he had called her, she stood before him. And he said to him..*
* “Say now to her, ‘Look, you have been concerned for us with all this care. What can I do for you? Do you want me to speak on your behalf to the king or to the commander of the army?’ ” She answered, “I dwell among my own people.”*II Kings 4:11-13 NKJV.
While searching for her gift from heaven, it was discovered that she was barren. They must have been elderly people past the age for conception.
*So he said, “What then is to be done for her?” And Gehazi answered, “Actually, she has no son, and her husband is old.” So he said, “Call her.” When he had called her, she stood in the doorway. Then he said, “About this time next year you shall embrace a son.” And she said..*II Kings 4:14-16 NKJV
The baby boy was indeed born and satan was not happy. The boy died but this woman of faith called forth Elisha again and the miracle of life continued. He was brought back from the dead.
*...He, (Elisha), returned and walked back and forth in the house, and again went up and stretched himself out on him; then the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.
*And he called Gehazi and said, “Call this Shunammite woman.” So he called her. And when she came in to him, he said, “Pick up your son.” So she went in, fell at his feet, and bowed to the ground; then she picked up her son and went out.*II Kings 4:33-37 NKJV.
God fearing nations shall be blessed.
The West enjoys rewards today for taking care of Missionaries and being benefactors for many years. Today is our turn. May the Lord show you your Divine Rewards in Jesus Name from this Elijah Principle in Jesus Name.
*Pray for the World to return to God the Almighty now.*
Seek and save the lost.
Your Servant...
