Key Verse

 “And she said unto her mistress, Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy”  (2 Kings 5:3).

Text — 2 Kings 5:1-7

Message

Naaman in our passage was a powerful army commander from Aram (modern-day Syria), who enjoyed social prominence, a reputation for military prowess, and the respect of his monarch. However, he suffered from an unresolvable health condition – leprosy. Then, this young Israelite slave girl, who had every reason to despise Naaman and take delight in his humiliating illness, instead showed true obedience by genuinely caring about her master’s health.  She recognized the God of miracles, and she informed him of a prophet in Israel who could heal him of his ailment.

God continues to work miracles. Many people are afflicted with the spiritual leprosy of sin, and others with poverty, physical handicaps, and failures. Are you prepared to point them to God, the sovereign Lord, like the slave girl did? Through you, they can get their miracles of salvation, healing, deliverance, and financial breakthrough. Do you have a leprosy of sin, poverty, or other health issues? You may receive your miracle by first seeking God’s kingdom. Accept Christ into your heart and life, and allow Him to work wonders in you.
