QUESTION
Is the favor of God on my house?
God speaks in your daily encounters!
Isaiah 54:2
BSB
2 “Enlarge the site of your tent, stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, do not hold back. Lengthen your ropes and drive your stakes in deep.
BSB
Enlargement is a fundamental principle of life. Anything that stops growing starts dying. Healthy things grow. Anyone who stops pressing forward or stops gaining new territory starts losing ground!
QUESTION
What is your tent?

- Your home
- Marriage
- Workplace
- Business
- Finances
- Your personal self
3 Steps to Enlarge Our Tents
1. Stretch

To enlarge will require you to stretch!
1 Kings 17:19-22
BSB
19 But Elijah said to her, “Give me your son.” So he took him from her arms, carried him to the upper room where he was staying, and laid him on his own bed.
20 Then he cried out to the LORD, “O LORD my God, have You also brought tragedy on this widow who has opened her home to me, by causing her son to die?”
21 Then he stretched himself out over the child three times and cried out to the LORD, “O LORD my God, please let this boy’s life return to him!”
22 And the LORD listened to the voice of Elijah, and the child’s life returned to him, and he lived.
BSB
Miracles are in your stretching:
- When you stretch your faith
- When you stretch in your obedience
- When you stretch in your serving
- When you stretch in your giving

We can’t be enlarged unless we are willing to be stretched!

2 Kings 6:1-7
BSB
1 Now the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “Please take note that the place where we meet with you is too small for us.
2 Please let us go to the Jordan, where each of us can get a log so we can build ourselves a place to live there.” “Go,” said Elisha.
3 Then one of them said, “Please come with your servants.” “I will come,” he replied.
4 So Elisha went with them, and when they came to the Jordan, they began to cut down some trees.
5 As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axe head fell into the water. “Oh, my master,” he cried out, “it was borrowed!”
6 “Where did it fall?” asked the man of God. And when he showed him the place, the man of God cut a stick, threw it there, and made the iron float.
7 “Lift it out,” he said, and the man reached out his hand and took it.
BSB
God is inviting you back to your daily encounter.
Every daily encounter strengthens your stakes.
When the stakes are straightened the tent is enlarged.
If you enlarge your tents, God can trust you with more.

It’s a season of enlarging our tents.
