UNMASKING YOUR ASSETS
Memorise: “My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways” (Prov 23:26)
Read: 2 Kings 4:1-7

Pastor E. Adeboye

Until God opens your eyes, you may not realize that what you are looking for abroad is by your side. The Lord will help you to unmask your assets today. It is great to have spiritual sight. When your eyes are shining, you will be exposed to hidden truths in the Word of God. It will also make you to see and appreciate your opportunities for blessings which you probably over-looked for years.

In our reading, the widow of one of the sons of the prophets battled with the problem of debt left behind by her late husband. While some husbands die and leave assets behind, hers died and left a monumental liability that was to cost her the freedom of her two sons.

She was preoccupied with the problem. She could not see that the solution was right there with her. The bottle of oil, friendly neighbours, plenty of empty vessels, her two sons and a link with God through the man of God, were all her tangible and intangible assets. They were all she required to move from lack to super abundance. She never knew until God opened her eyes. Today, the Lord will open your eyes to see the assets in your life that can trigger your miracle in Jesus’ Name.

For many years, we drove through the Lagos-Ibadan expressway without ever knowing our camp ground was there. One day, seven pastors teamed up with me to call on God in prayer. We told Him Ebute Metta our Headquarters had become too small for our Convention and that we needed a camp ground. The Lord answered and led us to the Express road and said, “That is your camp, but it will become a city”. Today, everyone is trying to establish their camp ground along the same Express Way, irrespective of God’s leading. This season, God will cause your eyes to shine. You will begin to see the wells of provision that have been by your side unnoticed all these years. You will begin to see all that the Lord had provided to help you in ministry. You will see your assets and use them to attain fullness of joy. Call on the Lord today to open your eyes. Every burden of debt lingering in your life is broken today in Jesus’ Name.

According to Proverbs 20:4, not all beggars should be helped. Helpless and hardworking beggars should be assisted. But lazy beggars should be left alone to hunger
