1 Kings 17:8-16
New International Version
8 Then the word of the LORD came to him: 9 "Go at once to Zarephath of Sidon and stay there. I have commanded a widow in that place to supply you with food." 10 So he went to Zarephath. When he came to the town gate, a widow was there gathering sticks. He called to her and asked, "Would you bring me a little water in a jar so I may have a drink?" 11 As she was going to get it, he called, "And bring me, please, a piece of bread." 12 "As surely as the LORD your God lives," she replied, "I don't have any bread—only a handful of flour in a jar and a little oil in a jug. I am gathering a few sticks to take home and make a meal for myself and my son, that we may eat it—and die." 13 Elijah said to her,"Don't be afraid. Go home and do as you have said. But first make a small cake of bread for me from what you have and bring it to me, and then make something for yourself and your son. 14 For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'The jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not run dry until the day the LORD gives rain on the land.' " 15 She went away and did as Elijah had told her. So there was food every day for Elijah and for the woman and her family. 16 For the jar of flour was not used up and the jug of oil did not run dry, in keeping with the word of the LORD spoken by Elijah.
"But God, all I have is..." God told you what He requires of you. Yet,everyday you are faced with your limitations and inadequacies. God knows the beginning and the end. But here you are in the middle trying to understand how you are going to make it to the end. Let's examine Elijah and the widow. Elijah had to trust God for what he needed. God sent him to this widow. This widow did not have enough to sustain herself and her son, let alone Elijah.
God will require you to do what you cannot do in your own strength. The widow was prepared to make the "last supper" for herself and her son. Then, Jehovah Jireh steps on the scene. Elijah asked the woman for some food. Like you, she thought about the limitations. She did have adequate means to honor his request. Or so she thought. She said," all I have is this little bit of flour and a little bit of oil. But, she surrendered what little she had. In the middle of a drought...God gave her a life sustaining blessing.
"Give me what you have, I will turn little into much. Don't hold anything back from Me", says the Lord. In your dry place, give God what little you have. He will give you a life sustaining blessing.
God Bless
