Jesus Christ is the Word of God. He is the Beginning. He is also the End
(John 1:1-3; Revelation 21:6). He is 'the Word...made flesh. 'We have seen His
glory' (John 1:14). This is only the beginning. When He returns, we shall see
His glory - 'we shall see Him as He is' (1 John 3:2). From Him, there is
creation (John 1:1-3). From Him, there is salvation (John 1:12-13). In Him, we
receive the forgiveness of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit
(John 1:29,32-34). He is the Word of God, the Lamb of God and the Son of God
(John 1:1,29,34). When we look at Jesus Christ, we see God - 'the Word was God'
(John 1:1), 'No one has ever seen God; the only Son, who is in the bosom of
the Father, He has made Him known' (John 1:18). Do you want to know what God is
like? - Look at Jesus (John 14:9). What do we see when we look at Him? -
'the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world' (John 1:29).
The power of God was upon Elisha. God was at work in mighty power. When we red about Elisha, we say, in our hearts, ‘This is not about Elisha. This is about God - - God working through Elisha.’ We must always remember to give all the glory to the Lord. The praise does not belong to the servant. It belongs to the Lord. He alone is worthy of praise.
