The Blessing for Continuous Wealth
Pastor Zubeda Sing · 2 min read
“Now there came a day when Elisha went over to Shunem, where there was a prominent and influential woman, and she persuaded him to eat a meal. Afterward, whenever he passed by, he stopped there for a meal. She said to her husband, “Behold, I sense that this is a holy man of God who frequently passes our way. Please, let us make a small, fully-walled upper room [on the housetop] and put a bed there for him, with a table, a chair, and a lampstand. Then whenever he comes to visit us, he can turn in there”
The Shunammite Woman
I love this story of the Shunammite woman. There are key words here that I want to bring to your attention. Once you apply these words and allow the holy spirit to work it as part of your character, you can be sure of a continuous wealth supply.
The woman was a wealthy, influential woman, she knew about money and people.
She immediately recognized that Elisha, like here was a man of influence. The word used in other versions of the bible is perceived. Please allow yourself to be taught by the Holy Spirit to be trained in discernment, perception and recognition. These are keys to improving your character and also a set up for you to have endless opportunities.
Never be too busy and then never recognize the opportunities God sends your way. Always be sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Like this Shunammite woman, trigger the anointing by recognizing a man or woman of God who has the words of life in their mouths.
This woman overcame death (the death of her son) and also overcame a drought (there was a drought in the land for 7 years and she was warned by the prophet to leave) and on her return she received all that was hers. Recognition, perception and discernment. Are you willing to embrace change?
