Have you ever had a ‘wow’ moment? You know, something happens that’s totally unexpected and just blows your mind? Well, I feel like that’s what Gods getting ready to do. He wants to wow us.
If you’re at your lowest point, scraping the bottom of the barrel, needing a breakthrough miracle like never before in your life, you’re right at the place where God can wow you. You see, if you were able to do it, you wouldn’t need the intervention of God so thats why I say, He has you where He needs you to be so that there’s no way on earth anyone will get glory but Him.
II Kings 4 tells a story of a widow who was deep in debt and about to lose her boys to work off her debt. The prophet Elisha showed up and asked her, “What can I do to help you?” He asked, “Tell me, what do you have in the house?”
“Nothing at all, except a flask of olive oil,” she replied.
So he instructs her to gather as many empty vessels as she can get, borrow from neighbors (who she probably owed already), shut yourself up in the house and begin to pour from your flask of oil until they’re all filled. So she did. She obeyed and got paid.
I wonder what would have happened if she had over thought the command? If she had reasoned out the impossibility of that ever happening? How many of us, because we just couldn’t ‘see’ how that could ever happened, have talked ourselves out of our greatest miracle?
Listen, I firmly believe that if we would simply spend time in Gods presence, listen and obey even when it makes no sense, not only would we see breakthrough for us, but we’d position ourselves to be part of breakthrough for others.
I don’t know about you, but I have no problem looking, acting or being foolish if it will bring glory to His Kingdom. I need a wow day and I’m ready, how about you?
