07/7 2 Kings 4:38-41
Elisha now returned to Gilgal, but there was a famine in the land. One day as the group of prophets was seated before him, he said to his servant, “Put on a large kettle and make some stew for these men.” 39 One of the young men went out into the field to gather vegetables and came back with a pocketful of wild gourds. He shredded them and put them into the kettle without realizing they were poisonous. 40 But after the men had eaten a bite or two they cried out, “Man of God, there’s poison in this stew!” So they would not eat it. 41 Elisha said, “Bring me some flour.” Then he threw it into the kettle and said, “Now it’s all right; go ahead and eat.” And then it did not harm them!
HARM
We face the possibility of real harm from a dangerous world. People who are lost hate Jesus. He is Lord and He loves His creation and He loves us that name His name as our Lord and Savior. Trust in the Lord and know Him and your pathway will be protected. Sometimes we discover that the protection is as we go and sometimes before we go. Seek the Lord and He will be found. Trust in Him.
