In
Ezekiel, we read of many sacrifices being offered to God. In the New
Testament, it is emphasized that one Sacrifice is sufficient - “For
Christ died for sins once for all, the Righteous for the unrighteous to
bring you to God” (1 Peter 3:18). We are called to look to Christ for salvation. We are to trust in the Lord. This is the way of true prosperity (Proverbs 28:25).
It is the way of walking in wisdom, the way of enjoying salvation.
This way is contrasted with the way of trusting in oneself, the way of
the fool (Proverbs 28:26).
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.
