There was a woman who was married to a prophet that was a servant to the prophet Elijah that had died. He left a woman and sons behind, but he had many debts. The creditors looked to take the woman's sons as slaves for repayment, and she was distraught.
The woman goes to Elijah and pleads her case. The prophet asks the woman, "What do you have in the house?" and she says, "Your maidservant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil."
He instructs her to borrow empty vessels/vases from everywhere and clearly says don't just gather a few but MANY! Read the scriptures 2 Kings 4:1-7 for full context, but in short, let me explain something to you.
God can only move on to what is pure, authentic, and true to what He has given you. He will grant an increase, but you will have to:
1. Ask
2. Use whatever skill, knowledge, talents, etc., that is in your hands.
3. Take instructions.
4. Be honest about your situation.
5. Have humility (she and her sons went around not begging but asking).
6. Move SWIFTLY!
7. Go confidently into the marketplace and sell!
8. Trust what Yah has given you has intrinsic value and can feed you if established and used right for a lifetime.
9. WORK! Sure, the prophet could've canceled the debt, and he could've given her money, but after the matter, she and her sons wouldn't be able to care for themselves. Literally, teaching a man to fish is better than just feeding him fish.
No one is coming to save you, no one owes you anything, and you cannot be codependent on the blessings of others, learn to go to the Father in your business and ask for direct strategic instructions on how to increase and bring more into your ark. Stop diminishing the little you have and USE IT! Bring what you have to Yah in Yeshua's name and ask Him, "What am I to do with this" T
his being, i.e., knowledge, skill, trade, a computer, the ability to learn fast, the act of service, hospitality, quick learner, baking, etiquette, etc. Ask in prayer for Him to lift the veil off your eyes and place you in the spaces where your services and products are needed. Business owners hear me and hear me well; in this upcoming season which we are already in, you will ONLY be able to excel by the favor and counsel of Yah and the Holy Spirit. I'd dare call it Supernatural Entrepreneurship; not even you will understand it.
