Each
of the tribes had their part in the promised land. Each of Jesus’
disciples, whom He called to Himself at the outset of His ministry, had
his part in the work of the Lord. What God did with Israel
and with Jesus’ first disciples will be surpassed when Christ comes in
glory: “You shall see greater things ... You shall see the heavens
open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man”
(John 1:50-51).
On that Day, there will be both salvation and judgment: “The righteous
man is rescued from trouble, and it comes on the wicked instead” (Proverbs 11:8).
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.
