Focus on What's Left: How God Multiplies What You Have [Podcast]

Episode Summary

What if the answer to your breakthrough isn't what you've lost—but what you've overlooked?

In this powerful teaching from 2 Kings 4, Dr. Chonta Haynes explores the story of the widow who believed she had nothing left, only to discover that God could multiply the very thing she nearly dismissed.

If you're navigating divorce, grief, career transitions, financial struggles, or unexpected loss, this episode will help you shift your perspective from scarcity to stewardship and discover how God uses what remains to create your next chapter.

You'll learn why God starts by asking "What do you have?" instead of focusing on what's missing, how to expand your expectations, and why your greatest breakthrough may already be in your hands.
