God's providence


And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.

And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth.

And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.

And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by Elijah.
1 Kings 17:12-16 KJV

The powerful testimony from this widow’s story is that the coming of the prophet made her to see the abundance of God when she acted as God instructed her through Elijah. If all the instructions you hear from any prophet who claim is only to bring and there is nothing for you.

Start with what you have and be willing to share even the little and believe God for the growth and success you seek. No one who serves self ever impacts his generation. If you want to impact your generation then you must be willing to share even what is considered little and God will multiply that little to become much.
