2 Kings 4:1-7
And our message today is from 2 Kings chapter 4 and we're going to read verses 1-7. Faith for a miracle. God is in the business of miracles.

And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.
