Topic: The Best For The Last

Text:" .....But as soon as the body  touched Elisha bone, the dead man revived" (2kings 13:21)

Elisha’s life comes to an end in 2 Kings 13:10-21 and he saved his most bizarre and ridiculous miracle for last. After Elisha is dead and buried, Moabite raiders attack Israel while some Israelites are burying a man. The attack must have surprised them so they quickly reacted and threw the man they were burying into Elisha’s tomb. When the dead man came into contact with Elisha’s bones, it brought him back to life. Even in death, God continued to use Elisha as a conduit to help those in need and do amazing things in the lives of others. Elisha was a prophet whose faith, obedience, compassion, and courage were ridiculous. Whether was it was making the ax head float, burning his plow in obedience to Elijah’s call, or bringing a dead man back to life after he had died himself.

It’s time to get ridiculous like Elisha and stop holding back. Though the year seem to be hurrying to end, and you might look and around and there is nothing much to hope for,  this is the time that God will give you your best miracle. Your situation has positioned you to relieve an a record shattering breakthrough. So It’s time to start taking risks and making decisions that the world might not understand. Elisha is a perfect example of what life can look like when you let go and decide to live with ridiculous faith. When you do let go and give it all to God, He can do amazing things in your life you never thought possible. It’s all up to you. What steps do you need to take to have the type of ridiculous faith that Elisha had? The best of God awaits....

PRAYER

Father God my faith says yes concerning____________ I believe you have reserved your best for this last time. I receive it in Jesus name.
