2 Kings 4:1-7 NLT
[1] One day the widow of a member of the group of prophets came to Elisha and cried out, “My husband who served you is dead, and you know how he feared the Lord. But now a creditor has come, threatening to take my two sons as slaves.”
[2] “What can I do to help you?” Elisha asked. “Tell me, what do you have in the house?” “Nothing at all, except a flask of olive oil,” she replied.
[3] And Elisha said, “Borrow as many empty jars as you can from your friends and neighbors.
[4] Then go into your house with your sons and shut the door behind you. Pour olive oil from your flask into the jars, setting each one aside when it is filled.”
[5] So she did as she was told. Her sons kept bringing jars to her, and she filled one after another.
[6] Soon every container was full to the brim! “Bring me another jar,” she said to one of her sons. “There aren’t any more!” he told her. And then the olive oil stopped flowing.
[7] When she told the man of God what had happened, he said to her, “Now sell the olive oil and pay your debts, and you and your sons can live on what is left over.”
Genesis 30:30-34,43 NASB
[30] For you had little before I came and it has increased to a multitude, and the Lord has blessed you wherever I turned. But now, when shall I provide for my own household also?”
[31] So he said, “What shall I give you?” And Jacob said, “You shall not give me anything. If you will do this one thing for me, I will again pasture and keep your flock:
[32] let me pass through your entire flock today, removing from there every speckled and spotted sheep and every black one among the lambs and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and such shall be my wages.
[33] So my honesty will answer for me later, when you come concerning my wages. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats and black among the lambs, if found with me, will be considered stolen.”
[34] Laban said, “Good, let it be according to your word.”
[43] So the man became exceedingly prosperous, and had large flocks and female and male servants and camels and donkeys.
Luke 5:4-7 NASB
[4] When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”
[5] Simon answered and said, “Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing, but I will do as You say and let down the nets.”
[6] When they had done this, they enclosed a great quantity of fish, and their nets began to break;
[7] so they signaled to their partners in the other boat for them to come and help them. And they came and filled both of the boats, so that they began to sink.
2 Kings 5:9-14 NASB
[9] So Naaman came with his horses and his chariots and stood at the doorway of the house of Elisha.
[10] Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh will be restored to you and you will be clean.”
[11] But Naaman was furious and went away and said, “Behold, I thought, ‘He will surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of the Lord his God, and wave his hand over the place and cure the leper.’
[12] Are not Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?” So he turned and went away in a rage.
[13] Then his servants came near and spoke to him and said, “My father, had the prophet told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much more then, when he says to you, ‘Wash, and be clean’?”
[14] So he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of the man of God; and his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child and he was clean.
