2 Kings 4:1-7 Widow woman seeking the man of
God to help her in an unprecedented time in her
life.
1. She sought God, James 1:5 front half says if
you lack wisdom ask
2. She heard from God, James 1:5 second half
says it will be given to you.
3. She was a doer of the word that was spoken
to her. James 1:25 says if you’re a doer of
the word you’ll be blessed in what you do.
4. Overnight she became head product
research and development, project
manager, operations specialist, head of the
marketing and sales departments,
packaging, warehouse manager, she’s in
charge of distribution and delivery,
accounts receivable, accounts payable, and
payroll.
5. She was not slack in this assignment
6. It doesn’t say she was experienced at all in
any of these areas.
7. Because she was diligent to seek the Lord,
hear from the Lord, and be a doer of the
Word, she added a new title to her list of
positions...Private Wealth Manager
2 Timothy 1:5 When I call to remembrance the
genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in
your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice,
and I am persuaded is in you also.
1. Paul knew Timothy's mom and grandma.
2. Paul had seen or had experienced
Timothy's mother and grandmother and
how they believed the Word of God.
3. Paul saw that same belief, that same "acting
like the Bible is true" spirit of faith in
Timothy.
4. Apparently Lois and Eunice did not have the
"do as I say, not as I do" theology in raising
their kids.
2 Timothy 3:14 But you must continue in the
things which you have learned and been assured
of, knowing from whom you have learned them,
and that from childhood you have known the
Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise
for salvation through faith which is in Christ
Jesus.
