COUNT THE STARS Wisdom From The Written Word Of God

    • Christianity

When God asked Abram to look up to heaven and if he is able to count the stars, that's how much his seed will be; God was trying to show Him that when He does things for us, He does it BIG. Moving on to the widow with a little oil and a debt to pay; Elisha tells her to borrow vessels, shut herself in and start pouring the oil. Elisha was specific, he told the widow not to borrow a few vessels. The widow filled all the vessels and even asked her son if there were still more vessels. Am sure she wished she had borrowed a bit more. This story shows us again that God wants us to have more than enough. Next time when you ask, don't limit God, He is God Unlimited.
