Achan
suffered death because of his own sinful disobedience. Achan died, and
the judgment of God did not come on the whole people of God. Jesus
suffered death as the sinless Son of God, who bore the sins of many that
we might be saved through faith in Him. Achan died because he
disobeyed the will of God. Jesus died in obedience to God’s will: “not
My will, but Yours be done” (Luke 22:42).
As we look on what Jesus has done for us, we are to “sacrifice
thank-offerings” to God that He might “show us the salvation of God” (Psalm 50:23).
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.
