A Double Portion - Joel Osteen Today's Word (December-16-2021)

Joel Osteen (December-16-2021) Today's Word: A Double Portion

Today’s Scripture - 2 Kings 2:9, NLT: Elijah said to Elisha, "Tell me what I can do for you before I am taken away." And Elisha replied, "Please let me inherit a double share of your spirit and become your successor."

Today’s Word: Elijah was a great prophet who did many amazing miracles. One day he saw a young man named Elisha and told him to come and be his assistant, to basically take care of him. Elisha was from a wealthy family and could have been too proud to take what seemed like a low level position, but he recognized the favor on Elijah's life. He respected the anointing. For years he served Elijah with honor, and eventually, he received a double portion of Elijah's anointing and did twice as many miracles.

When you sow into someone with great favor, you're going to reap some of that favor. Sow honor into that supervisor who’s ahead of you. Sow respect into that colleague who’s extremely talented. Sow friendship and encouragement into that person who's taking new ground. God put them there to bring you favor. As you connect to them, new doors are going to open for you, and new talents are going to come out.

Prayer for Today: "Father, thank You that Elisha didn't just get the favor that Elijah had, but he received a double portion. Help me to find the people with whom I should connect and help them to find me as well. I believe that the honor I show them will come back to me. In Jesus' Name, Amen."
