[S] 2 Kings 8:6 (NIV) --
The king asked the woman about it, and she told him. Then he assigned an official to her case and said to him, "Give back everything that belonged to her, including all the income from her land from the day she left the country until now."
[O] The woman whose son Elisha had restored to life exiled to land of Philistines for seven years following the advice of Elisha. And after seven years when she returned she was recognized by the king as the person who experienced Elisha's miracle and ordered his official to restore her house and everything belonged to her including the backlogged income. This displays God's faithfulness keeping His promises (from when Elisha saved her son) despite the period of famine she had to weather through. When following God's direction, He will take care of everything without any loss.
[A] Even though I know that I should surrender my financial income to God completely, it is still one of the challenging areas to do just that. However, unless I trust His ways and guidance 100% I will forego the opportunity of receiving His faithfulness in my career and income just like this woman did.
[P] Dear God, grant me the heart of trust in Your financial provisions when I completely trust in Your way. I want to bring out Your glory in my finances not because of my great efforts (although not be lazy) but because I am carrier of Your amazing works. In Jesus' name. Amen.
