A
comparison may be made between Israel’s entry into the promised land
and Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem. Ahead of both, there lay conflict, but
beyond the conflict, there was triumph. Their triumph is the triumph of
God – “As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the Lord
Almighty, in the city of our God: God makes her secure for ever” (Psalm 48:8).
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.
