2 Kings 4:2 .Then Elisha said to her, “What am I to do for you? say now, what have you in the house? And she said, Your servant has nothing in the house but a pot of oil”

Elisha says to the poor widow woman, who is in debt “What can I do for you”?

She says I need money to pay my debts.

He says, GO and ASK for many vessels as you can.

She fills every one with oil and sells it.

You may come to God as a poor weak person, with needs and many sorrows. God says What do you want? You may say ....what ever, but being a singles encouragement web page you may say “A precious Spouse” God says GO and ASK people you trust to pray for you. But also He may say the very ANSWER to your need is within your grasp, even at the doors, how? The widows need was in her friends houses (vessels) God did the rest by filling. The answer to our earthly needs may well be RIGHT NEXT DOOR to us. The lesson here is she got on and did what God told her through Elisha, she got involved in Gods plan to help her.

We need to get involved in Gods plan to provide us. The most obvious way is prayer but also getting stuck in to a local church. As we are working for Him & focusing on His pleasure He then will guide us to our dear needs.

She had to ASK God wants us to ASK and ASK from Him about these things.

God says You MUST ASK, I have said “You Don’t have because you DONT ASK” if she only asked for a few vessels she would have soon been hungry again.
