The Leprosy Exchange Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jan 30, 2017

When we humble ourselves, we can draw near to God and be blessed by Him. When we elevate ourselves or self-interest, we are driven from Him and under his discipline.

The Leprosy Exchange (2 Kings 5:1-27) 1. Probably every one of us thinks, “I hope I never get to a condition where other people have to take care of me because I am bedfast.” 2. But the future is unknown, and life can take a sudden turn. Take Charles Krauthammer, a political analyst many ...read more

The Curse Of Coveting

He was seeking to live the truth and be pleasing to the Lord. Today we will looking at someone named Gehazi, ...read more

Do Not Worry!

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Mar 8, 2022

Once again we are shocked by the turmoil that has arisen, not just among individuals, but even between nations. Again & again we’ve witnessed how cruel people can be, & how cheaply human life is regarded by some.

Is Everything Alright?

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 15, 2016

Many People Have Had Divine Opportunities That They Have Blown. Either they did not realize the significance of what they had or they knew but took it for granted. Gehazi the servant of Elisha is one of such examples. He trampled on a divine opportunity.

IS EVERYTHING ALRIGHT? 2 KINGS 5:14-27: 14 So he (Naaman) went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven times, as the man of God had told him, and his flesh was restored and became clean like that of a young boy. 15 Then Naaman and all his attendants went back to the man of God. He stood before ...read more

Gift Of Naaman

Contributed by Samuel M on Jul 4, 2023

This verse reveals a lot about Gehazi. Gehazi has seen Naaman’s gift, but he has not seen the curse or the leprous nature attached to Naaman’s gift.

But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, “Look, my master has spared Naaman this Syrian, while not receiving from his hands what he brought; but as the Lord lives, I will run after him and take something from him”. 2 Kings 5:20 This verse reveals a lot about Gehazi. Gehazi has seen ...read more

The Means Of Grace

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Dec 23, 2023

God’s power does not depend on tangible things or reside in visible things. It is God in Christ who calls, and when we come to him, it is God in Christ who heals.

Can you imagine how desperate General Naaman must have been? Aram and Israel were enemies, for goodness’ sake. They were raiding across each other's borders, looting and taking slaves and generally making nuisances of themselves, keeping in practice for the next full-scale hostilities to break ...read more

Elisha’s Ministry - Naaman, Almost The Reject - 2 Kings 5:1-19 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 18, 2022

Naaman was a powerful man, with all the success one could desire, all the esteem and glory, BUT he had leprosy. The account of his cure is of value to us as it contains lessons that benefit us in many ways. It was God who wrought the miracle, not Elisha. He was the willing servant.

ELISHA’S MINISTRY - NAAMAN, ALMOST THE REJECT - 2 Kings 5:1-19 SERIES – MESSAGES ON ELISHA – HIS LIFE AND MINISTRY Number 14 When we consider chapter 5, the focus here is on Naaman, not so much on Elisha, but it is Elisha we are studying. Along the way we will also look into the motives of ...read more

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 19, 2022

Naaman was healed by God but Gehazi, the servant of Elisha, coverted the gifts Naaman brought which Elisha refused. This sad story is what happens when lust has conceived and it had tragic results for Gehazi.
