During the time of the Old Testament kings, there was much “turning away from following the Lord” (2 Chronicles 25:27).
In such times as these, we need to be encouraged to go on with the
Lord: “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be
strong. Do everything in love” (1 Corinthians16:13-14).
The warnings from previous generations, together with the call to
follow the Lord, are written for people of every generation: “Let this
be written for a future generation, that a people not yet created may
praise the Lord” (Psalm 102:18).
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.
