Elisha warned the Shunammite woman about a famine that was coming upon the land and told her to take her family to another country until it was over in 2 Kings 8:1. The woman obeyed the Word of the Lord spoken through Elisha and took her entire household to live in the land of the Philistines. After the famine ended, the woman returned to Shunem only to find that during the time she was gone, her house and land had been seized. When she went to the king to ask for the return of her property, Elisha’s servant, Gehazi, was with the king telling him how this woman's son had been raised from the dead. When the king realized who she was, he immediately declared in 2 Kings 8:6, “Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now." God not only provided for this Shunammite woman during the seven years of famine, but He also restored all she had lost during the time that she was away from her homeland. She experienced a supernatural, divine provision because of her faithfulness to God. When you remain faithful in giving, you are positioned for financial restoration, as well as restoration in all areas equally as important or even more valuable. God can restore your family, friends, job, possessions, and more when this crisis passes. Don't give up on God and He won't give up on you!
