He took the cloak that had fallen from Elijah and struck the water with it. “Where now is the Lord, the God of Elijah?” he asked. When he struck the water, it divided to the right and to the left, and he crossed over. 2 Kings 2:14
I'm beside myself with the evening Christian news. Woe and behold if you focus on "sin." People seem to want entertainment more than holy living. May we focus on what is true and right and holy.
As we strike the waters to walk on dry land, may we call upon the Sovereign, the One Who sustains and carries us, even to our old age. I won't see my children as mature adults in this world. But I can pray for them this very day that they find the God of Elijah. May the cloak fall on all of us as we read this holy Word.
God Who owned Elijah owns you. The God Who provided for Elijah provides for you and yours. The God Who loved Elijah loves you. And He is near to you. The LORD is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in Truth. Psalm 145:18. Keep on calling. Keep on praying. And Elisha prayed to God to fill the valleys with water overnight. 2 Kings 3:17. God did just that. May God fill all your valleys.
PHOTO: At an Ironman triathlon with a sun creeping up to start a new day. I have been given miracles from the King of Kings. What will I allow to take away that peace this waking morning of how those miracles are being delivered? Something is going to happen. Something is going to try. Find rest in this power of the rising sun, my soul.
