Enlarge your capacity and capability

 “Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.” Isaiah 54:2-3

 

Enlargement is a function of capacity and capability. God will not give you what you are not capable of handling, nor will He give you what you don’t have space for. Build your capacity to receive more from God by spending time with Him and His word. Improve your capability by learning and growing your skills. God is not limited in what He pours into a man. It is a man that defines the limit of what He receives from God. If you bring a cup, God will fill it; if you bring a tank, God will fill it.

“And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.” 2 Kings 4:6

“And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.” Mathew 25:15

 

In 2 Kings 4:6, the widow of the Prophet who was in debt received a miracle of divine multiplication of oil. She was instructed to borrow many empty vessels and then pour her little oil into them. She did, and as long as there were empty vessels, the oil was flowing. The oil only stopped when there was no longer an empty vessel. As long as you have the capacity to receive, God will pour His grace, wisdom, and power into you for enlargement. Similarly, in Matthew 25:15, each of the servants determined what he received based on his ability. If you can handle it, God will give it to you.

 

Increase is your portion in Jesus name.
