“A curse on him who is lax in doing the Lord’s work!” (Jeremiah 48:10).
We should not be lax in doing the Lord’s work, “For God did not give us
a spirit of timidity, but a Spirit of power, of love and of
self-discipline” (2 Timothy 1:7).
Through the power of the Spirit of God, we are able to say, with Paul,
“I am not ashamed, because I know whom I have believed, and am
convinced that He is able to guard what I have entrusted to Him for
that Day” (2 Timothy 1:12). Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we are enabled to “obey the statutes of Your mouth” (Psalm 119:88).
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.
