What do you have in your house?

“And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.” 2 Kings 4:2 KJV

As a Christian, you should never say you have nothing. You have Jesus, and if you listen to Him and obey His word, you will not only have all that you need, but you will also overcome every battle (Matthew 4:19; Luke 5:4–6; Mark 11:23–24; Matthew 16:19). What you know you already have, and understand its purpose, will make a difference in any situation. Peter declared in Acts 3:6 that he had the name of Jesus, and with that name, a crippled man was healed. The Bible further teaches that God Himself dwells within us (1 Corinthians 6:19; 1 John 4:4). Therefore, as believers, we carry His presence, His authority, and His power inside us, and that is more than enough.

When Peter began to sink, he cried out to Jesus, and immediately Jesus reached out His hand, lifted him up, and together they walked on water (Matthew 14:31). When the disciples were terrified by the raging storm, they called on Him, and He spoke peace to the winds and waves, and the storm ceased (Mark 4:39). In the same way, if your situation feels overwhelming, do not be afraid, pray, speak God’s Word to it, and expect His miracle-working power (Philippians 4:6). Today is your day of good news and divine intervention, in Jesus’ name.

Prophetic Word: I prophesy over you that you will subdue all opposition and attacks, in Jesus' name!

Prayer: Oh God, have mercy on me, help me, and let Your will be done in my life, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
