How can we have Victories over the Heartaches
Cliffs?
2 Kings 5:1, 13-14
“Now Naaman, captain of the
host of the King of Syrian, was a great man with his master, and honorable,
because by him the Lord had given deliverance unto Syria: he was a mighty man
in valor, but he was a Leper."
Many
people are talking about the headache cliffs of this coming year! What are
they? Maybe our finances, health, spiritual, emotional, or the uncertainty of
the future! Naaman faced a horrible future but ultimately he trusted in God to
meet this cliff.
Here is what I gleamed
from the scriptures that has given me encouragement.
A.
Naamam faced a horrible cliff which was being a leper. In those days this
terrible disease had no cure; it causes separation from loves ones, sores, pains
and death.
B Naaman faced this awe full cliff by faith in
God’s Word in spite of the unknown. In
these verses 8-14 we can gleam several steps to victory which are:
1. He resisted God’s plan which was to dip in
the dirty waters of Jordan to be healed.
2. He then became obedient to God’s word. He
showed it by his actions.
3. He was healed.
4. He
showed the world God’s awesome power.
Dear
friends, today many of us are facing difficult cliffs which are: spiritual,
physical, social, emotional. Many of us are facing financial changes, changes
in our jobs, and changes in our health which could lead to death.
God
loves you very much. He has not forgotten you! I believe just like Naaaman we
need to continue to trust in God and apply His Word to our life. I also believe
that no matter what happens we can truly state that my hope and faith is
standing on the solid rock.
‘“The Lord is my Rock, my Fortress and My
ROCK…..” 2 Samuel 22:23
God will always make a way!!!
Today as we face many uncertain cliffs let us
pray together,” Dear Lord Jesus no matter what life throw’s at us, no matter
what cliffs we face, we trust you in Jesus name to make a way for us. Thank you
Jesus for giving us your comfort, encouragement and strength in Jesus name, Amen!"
Love, Eddie and Donna
