POT OF OIL

I've never really spoken about my experiences in the Holy Land. Words can't caption it at all.
We took a picture in front of a cafe that has existed for decades. It is a family owned business, one person sowed the seed and left an inheritance for generations. Gil just mentioned it casually but it hasn't left me since.
I've done a few businesses and failed woefully at them so I can imagine the tears and sweat involved in keeping this business alive let alone for so long. 

A few years ago I heard in a service that you should pray about your source of income because He teaches us to create wealth, in the vision of the day or dream of the night He will drop the idea. He did it with Jacob when Laban was trying to cheat him.

I am learning not to do anything without asking THE STORY CHANGER. 

That widow in the bible had a little oil in her house that she thought had no value,Elisha told her to go and borrow jars, (get capacity, train yourself, broaden your horizon) she had borrowed what she could and after pouring into all the jars she could find ,there was no more (reached her limit). 
He said to her, "Go, sell the oil and pay your debt and you and YOUR SONS  can live on the rest (inheritance). From debt to leaving an inheritance!!! 


No matter how many versions of tongues you can switch on and off ,it doesn't translate to wealth if you do not cry out. (After all her husband was a son of a prophet) 
Ask God for your pot of oil (source of income) that won't dry up and live an inheritance for your children and they will thank you for it. 

As Christians we know that our economy isn't of this world and our lives should reflect it. If Isaac sowed in famine and reaped 100 fold In the same year, has that God who favored Isaac gone on leave?
