“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.“
2 Kings 4:4

It takes faith to empty me of me.

• I will only be filled to the measure of which I am emptied.
• When I’m full of me, there’s less room for God.

When I don’t empty me out of me, I am unable to:

• Live fully and freely in the fullness of God in me.
  For in Him the whole fullness of Deity (the Godhead) continues to dwell in bodily form [giving complete expression of the divine nature]. And you are in Him, made full and having come to fullness of life [in Christ you too are filled with the Godhead—Father, Son and Holy Spirit—and reach full spiritual stature]. And He is the Head of all rule and authority [of every angelic principality and power].
  Colossians 2:9-10 (AMPC)

• Experience fully the fullness of Presence
  [That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]!
  Ephesians 3:19 (AMPC)

• Partake fully of the fullness of His grace upon grace.
  For out of His fullness (abundance) we have all received [all had a share and we were all supplied with] one grace after another and spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and even favor upon favor and gift [heaped] upon gift.
  John 1:16 (AMPC)

“You have God in the measure in which you desire Him.” – Alexander MacLaren

“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.2 Kings 4:2I can trust that God can take and make something out of my “nothing at all”.

What could you do with me God, if I emptied me?
