TOPIC: MESSAGE FROM THE MAID
TEXT:2 KINGS 5:1-10
MEMORY VERSE: "And she said unto her mistress, Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy" (2 KINGS 5:3).
Many people bemoan their low estate and consider it the reason why they cannot be productively engaged in the service of God. The captive slave girl in our text is a great challenge to such people. Though a captive, she had deep concern for her great but leprous master. His pathetic condition despite his greatness gave her great concern.
Though a slave in a foreign land, she never forgot her God and His great power bestowed on Prophet Elisha. She knew without any iota of doubt that her God has the power to cure Naaman of his leprosy. Her message was very clear and indeed the key to Naaman's healing and salvation. Beloved, what effort are you making towards recovering many spiritually and physically leprous people around you? Look away from your limitations and personal challenges. Be concerned for the good of others.Point people to the Saviour who alone has cure for their sick souls and broken bodies, and you will become a channel of blessing to many helpless and hopeless people. Never hide your testimony. Share with others.
QUOTE: Point people to the Saviour.
CHALLENGE: How many helpless people have you pointed to Christ?
PRAYER: Lord, make me a helper of the joy of others.ER
