The Widow Pays a Debt - Elisha and the Widow's Oil
A merchant tells a suspicious customer how God helped a woman pay off her massive debt with olive oil. God used the prophet Elisha to provide for her needs and glorify his name.
This is the first of four miracle stories performed by Elisha in 2 Kings chapter 4. Each miracle shows how God provides for faithful people through Elisha. When a faithful person asks for Elisha’s help, God delivers a miracle.
Elisha was taught by the great prophet Elijah who also performed miracles with God’s help. Later, Jesus performs miracles like those of Elijah and Elisha, but Jesus' miracles are much greater.
Questions to Consider:
1. Why did the widow beg Elisha for help?
2. What did the prophet Elisha reveal to the widow about God?
3. What did the widow do to show her faithfulness?
4. What choices could you make to show that you are faithful?
