“I Know There Is No God In The World Except Yahweh!”
The medical field is becoming more aware that when they administer the treatment it is God who effects the cure. If it is God who effects the cure, then we should never underestimate the kind or quantity of medication that effects healing.
Healing is not necessarily dependent on the size of your wallet. And sometimes the prescription that heals are so commonplace. Such was the case of Naaman. We are told that “Naaman went with his horses and chariots and stopped at the door of Elisha’s house. Elisha sent a messenger to say to him, ‘Go, wash yourself seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh will be restored and you will be cleansed. ‘”
Naaman was angry. His next action reveals his pride. He felt slighted that the prophet did not come out to him “and stand and call on the name of the Lord his God, wave his hand over the spot and cure me of my leprosy….” So saying, “he turned and went off in rage.”
It was the servants who pleaded with him that he will lose nothing by doing what the prophet asked him to do. It is then that Naaman did what the prophet did and was healed.
He went back with all the money he had brought and offered to the prophet, but the prophet refused to take it. What a lesson to the prophets of today who sell even prayer! Any spiritual healing from God through the man of God is free of charge! Elisha could not have been receiving money for doing nothing.
Naaman was instantly converted to serve the Lord. He affirmed, “Now I know that there is no God in the world except in Israel.” He vowed to “never again make burnt offerings and sacrifices to any other God but the Lord.”
The simple response by the prophet was, “Go in peace”(II Kgs.5:9:-19a).
Few lessons from the story:

  1. Lower your pride before the Lord and obey what he tells you through his servants.
  2. If you are a master, listen to your servants.
  3. When the Lord answers your request, serve only him with devotion.
  4. Spiritual healing is by the power of God and not by the prophet.
  5. Lastly, God’s prophetic healing is not for commercial purposes! Charlatans beware!
    My friend, we are all sick, either physically, emotionally or spiritually. We all need spiritual healing from the Lord of Host.
    Prayer: Lord, lower my pride that I should accept the command you give to me through your servants and be healed. Amen!
    Have a blessed day! Peace be with you!
