A word for you!
2 Kings 5:9-15 AMP
"So Naaman came with his horses and chariots and stopped at Elisha's door. Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored and you shall be clean. But Naaman was angry and went away and said, Behold, I thought he would surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of the Lord his God, and wave his hand over the place and heal the leper. Are not Abana and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? May I not wash in them and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage. And his servants came near and said to him, My father, if the prophet had bid you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much rather, then, when he says to you, Wash and be clean? Then he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, as the man of God had said, and his flesh was restored like that of a little child, and he was clean. Then Naaman returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and stood before him. He said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth but in Israel. So now accept a gift from your servant."
I believe some of us know the story of Naaman who was the chief of army of syria but he had leprosy. Thank God for the girl servant from Israel who told him about Elisha. After Naaman met Elisha and the prophet told him what needs to be done for Naaman to be whole. Naaman started lamenting about the solution, laying dtoen preferences. What about this and that, why that? Dear friend are you in thesame shoe as Naaman today? Are you questioning God's solution and giving preferences? Are you delaying your breakthrough because of your ego, pride or uncertainty? God has spoken instead of you to grab it and say amen you are checking if the word is real. Instead of running with the vision, entrusting all to Jehovah you are searching for other options. As Naaman finally let his ego down and obeyed, which led to his breakthrough and testimony today God wants you and I to put all our ego and pride down and obey Him totally. He will never fail because He is God. Stop delaying your breakthrough by yielding to flesh. Yield to the Holy Spirit's nudge. God says go stop asking why? Have a wonderful day.
