2 Kings 6:17 (KJV) – “ And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.”
When the Prophet Elisha warned the king of Israel of an upcoming trap, the opposing king set out to capture and kill Elisha. He brought many fighting men and chariots and surrounded the place where Elisha and his servant stayed. When the servant saw the large fighting force, he was terrified but Elisha was not shaken in the least. He saw in his spirit the multitude of angels that God had positioned for his protection and he prayed and asked God to open the eyes of his servant that he too could be aware that they were not alone.
Our God promises to never leave nor forsake us…in essence that means that we are never alone and when we need reinforcements to stand with us, like Elisha, we simply need to pray and ask for discernment of where our allies are; how to rally our troops and what moves to make. But in it all, we are not to worry, fret or lose heart; for WE ARE NOT ALONE.
Every day is a good day; it is up to us to make it a GREAT day! Don’t be distracted – stay focused on your purpose! Be blessed! Dr. JoAnn
