There were hypocrites trying to condemn Job. There were “hypocrites …
trying to trap” Jesus (Matthew 22:18). In both cases, they had to give
up – “they had found no way to refute Job” (Job 32:3); “No-one could say
a word in reply” to Jesus (Matthew 22:46). The testimony of God’s
people is summed up in Psalm 18:17-18: “He rescued me from my powerful
enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me. They confronted me in
the day of my disaster, but the Lord was my support.”
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.
