Concerning Egypt, God says, “I will punish you in this place” (Jeremiah 44:29).
There can be no blessing when we live in direct contradiction to His
Word. What we must never forget is the existence and activity of Satan (1 Timothy 5:15).
He is always there, seeking to make us “turn away from God to follow
Satan.” We must learn to say to God, “I believe in Your commands ... I
obey Your Word .... Teach me Your decrees ... I keep Your precepts with
all my heart ... I delight in Your law ... The law from Your mouth is
more precious to me than thousands of pieces of silver and gold” (Psalm 119:66-70,72).
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.
