Elisha & the Arameans

Bill White

The story of Elisha miraculously prevailing against the Aramean army in 2 Kings 6 depicts him to be the lone powerful person involved in the event. In contrast to the foolish king of Aram, the irrelevant king of Israel, and the weak servant boy, Elisha has a living relationship with God marked by trust and obedience. This picture of a man and his God compels us to examine our own lives for this kind of relationship and the power that comes from it.
