S. 2 Kings 6:5-7 (NIV) 5 As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axhead fell into the water. “Oh no, my lord!” he cried out. “It was borrowed!”
6 The man of God asked, “Where did it fall?” When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, and made the iron float. 7 “Lift it out,” he said. Then the man reached out his hand and took it.
O. I think this story is here not so much to record Elisha having a double portion of Elijah’s spirit, but perhaps to simply communicate there is no need too small that escapes God’s attention. What a great reminder that God is interested in every aspect of our life and I think He wants us to know that about Him.
A. What a great reminder that builds me up - it emboldens my faith. It reminds me of the song, “His Eye is on the Sparrow” and Jesus’ teachings from Matthew 6 - that we have no need for fear, God takes care of every aspect of our lives.
P. Thank you Lord for this refreshing word today. There isn’t anything about our lives that escapes your attention. Holy Spirit continue to fill me and lead me with wisdom, knowledge, love and faith. In Jesus’ name.
