The lack of a greater faith, closed the miraculous intervention of God

Dr. Roberto Miranda

(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: The story of the widow and Elisha in 2 Kings 4:1-7 shows how God can perform miracles in our lives, but also how we need to take action and participate in the process. The widow's diligence in collecting vessels and pouring oil led to God's miraculous multiplication of the oil, but when there were no more vessels, the miracle stopped. Elisha instructed her to sell the oil and pay her creditors, and she was able to live comfortably on the remaining income. God wants us to take action and confidently approach Him for help in our difficulties.

The widow was pouring oil and in a miraculous way God was multiplying it while the jars were empty. But when all the vessels were full this woman said to a son of hers: bring me still other vessels, and he said: there are no more vessels, then the oil stopped.

While this woman was busy I imagine that these guys were happy to bring her all the pots they had gotten and this woman was just looking at the next empty pot and pouring in the oil, and she had no chance to observe the surroundings and see everything that was going on. , and she was enthusiastic about pouring and pouring oil, and when all the pots were already full and she said: good follow me bringing pots, and unfortunately there were no more pots left, and then one of the sons said to her: no mom, there are no more more vessels.
