Good morning and welcome to Wake Up, where we wake up. Pastor Scotand Pastor Holly are talking about what to do when it feels like youdo not have enough time, energy, money, encouragement, or joy to giveanyone anything.
They dive into thepowerful story in 1 Kings 17 of the widow who thought she only hadenough flour and oil for one last meal before she and her son died.Elijah asked her to make him something first and give what little shehad. When she put it in God’s hands, the flour did not run out andthe oil did not run dry.
In this episode theytalk about
🫶 When “notenough” is actually more than enough in God’s hands
The widow said, “Ionly have a handful of flour and a little oil.”
Elijah asked her togive out of what looked tiny and final.
God turned her“barely anything” into ongoing provision.
When you give Godyour little, He can multiply it into more than you can contain.
🎁 Giving is somuch more than money
Giving is not justfinances. It is
Giving your time
Giving joy
Giving encouragement
Giving grace
Serving your spouse,family, church, and the people around you
You may feel, “Ido not have enough joy to share.”
Take the little joyyou do have and brighten someone else’s day.
“Nobody encouragesme.”
Start encouragingothers, and watch how God sends encouragement back to you.
🌱 Being faithfulin little so God can trust you with more
They connect thisstory to:
Be faithful in thelittle, and He makes you ruler over much.
“My job does notpay me much.”
Be great at thatjob. Work hard. Do all things as unto the Lord.
Man is not yourpromoter. God is.
“I do not havemuch energy when I get home.”
Take the little youdo have and sow it into your spouse, kids, and home.
God has a way ofmultiplying that energy when you live to serve.
💛 God sees yourheart, not just your capacity
God knows when youwish you could do more but only have a little.
He sees the desire,the intent, and the willingness to give from what seems small.
Your little seed oftime, money, help, or kindness is precious to Him.
He is able toenlarge it, maximize it, and use it to magnify Himself.
🆚 The trap ofcomparison and the mindset of lack
We look at whatothers can give or do and think, “Mine does not matter.”
The enemy loves tolive in that feeling of lack and “not enough.”
When you choose tosay, “I will give what I have anyway,” you break that lie.
💒 Serving,tithing, and trusting God with increase
Everyone should finda way to give some time to their local church.
The house of God isthe most powerful place on earth to impact lives.
Tithing is bringingwhat already belongs to God.
“I do not haveenough to tithe.”
The truth is, you donot have enough not to tithe.
Scot shares how hisparents gave out of poverty and God always made sure they had enough.
😂 Fun dad humorand nostalgia
At the end they haveDad Joke Monday and some fun talk about
Wallets before andafter kids
When we used tocarry printed photos instead of scrolling 10,000 pics on a phone
How film anddeveloping photos used to cost real money, so every picture mattered
💡 Big idea
Stop waiting untilyou feel like you have “enough” to start giving. Take whatever isin your hand and put it in God’s hands. He sees your heart,multiplies your seed, and turns “not enough” into more thanenough.
One “little”thing you are choosing to give anyway
