📖 经文

【列王纪下 4:2】
以利沙问她说：“我可以为你作什么呢？你告诉我，你家里有什么？”她说：“婢女家中除了一瓶油之外，没有什么。”

✨ 灵修短文

这位寡妇失去了丈夫，又面临失去儿子的危险，几乎一无所有。但神人以利沙并没有直接给她金钱，而是引导她从自己“已有的”开始。她家中只剩下“一瓶油”，看似微不足道，却成了神祝福的起点。

神的作为常常如此——祂不会要求我们拿出没有的，而是使用我们已经拥有的。我们手中的“小小一瓶油”，也许是有限的资源，也许是我们的恩赐与才干，也可能是仅存的一点信心。但若愿意交在神的手中，祂能使它倍增，足以扭转困境。

寡妇照着吩咐去借器皿、关上门、不断倒油。她的顺服与信心，决定了她所能承接的恩典。器皿越多，盛满的油就越多。神的供应不是吝啬的，而是充足的，只等我们预备好心中的“器皿”。

最终，她不仅偿还了债务，还余下足够维持生活。神的恩典不只是救急，而是带领我们进入稳定、丰盛、长久的供应。

🙏 祷告回应

亲爱的主，
我承认自己常觉得资源有限，力量不足，好像只有“一瓶油”。但我知道，当我把仅有的交在祢手中，祢就能使它倍增。
求祢赐我信心和顺服，愿意预备“器皿”，不小看自己所有的。
愿祢的恩典流入我生命，使我不仅得以脱离困境，更能丰盛有余，去祝福他人。
奉主耶稣的名祷告，阿们。

🛢️ The Jar of Oil · God’s Abundant Provision

📅 September 12, 2025

⸻

📖 Scripture

2 Kings 4:2
“Elisha replied to her, ‘How can I help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?’
‘Your servant has nothing there at all,’ she said, ‘except a small jar of olive oil.’”

⸻

✨ Devotional

This widow had lost her husband and was on the verge of losing her two sons to slavery. She seemed to have nothing left. Yet Elisha did not hand her money directly. Instead, he guided her to start with what she already had. She only had “a small jar of oil,” which looked insignificant, but it became the starting point of God’s blessing.

God often works in this way—He never asks us for what we do not have, but He uses what we already possess. Our “small jar of oil” may be limited resources, our talents, or even the little faith we still hold on to. But when surrendered into His hands, He can multiply it beyond imagination and turn our situation around.

The widow obeyed: she borrowed jars, shut the door, and kept on pouring. Her obedience and faith determined how much blessing she received. The more jars she prepared, the more oil was poured out. God’s supply is not stingy but abundant—waiting only for us to prepare the “vessels” of our hearts.

In the end, she not only paid off her debts but also had enough left to live on. God’s grace does not only rescue us in crisis; it leads us into stability, abundance, and lasting provision.

🙏 Prayer

Dear Lord,
I confess that I often feel my resources are too limited, like just “a small jar of oil.” Yet I know that when I surrender what little I have to You, You can multiply it.
Give me faith and obedience to prepare “vessels,” and never despise what is in my hands.
May Your grace flow into my life, that I may not only overcome struggles but also live in abundance, blessing others in return.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
