Don't Stay Silent!

When the enemy surrounds us and resources are completely gone, do we trust what our eyes can see, or what God has promised? In this week's study, we dive into a fast-paced narrative spanning 2 Kings 6 and 7, exploring two of the most dramatic deliverances in the Old Testament.

First, we stand with Elisha’s servant as he wakes up surrounded by a hostile Syrian army, only to have his eyes opened to see the mountain filled with horses and chariots of fire. Then, we travel into the horrific famine of besieged Samaria, where four outcasts with leprosy discover that God has already won the battle and provided an abundance of food. This powerful teaching reminds us that our crisis is never a crisis for the Almighty.

Key Highlights From This Teaching:

God Cares About the Small Things Too: 1st Peter 5 says to cast ALL of your cares or anxieties upon the Lord for He cares for you. Nothing is too insignificant for God's concern.

Open Our Eyes: Learning to see the spiritual realities in the world around us and a warning about being blind to the spiritual and even natural realities of our world and the dangers that blindness can cause.

The Day of Good News: Following the example of the four lepers who couldn't keep the news of deliverance to themselves—a beautiful picture of our call to share the Gospel.

The Tragedy of Unbelief: The sobering warning of the king's officer who saw God's provision with his eyes but missed it because of his doubt.
