Life
was not easy for the prophet Jeremiah. The king and his attendants did
not pay “any attention to the words the Lord had spoken through
Jeremiah the prophet” (Jeremiah 37:1-2). We must pray for “kings and all those in authority” (1 Timothy 2:1-2).
They have so much power to do good or evil. As we consider the
nation’s life, we must affirm, with the Psalmist, “I remember Your
ancient laws, O Lord, and I find comfort in them” (Psalm 119:52).
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.
