IT WON'T ALWAYS MAKE SENSE

2 Kings 5 

Naaman is cured of leprosy in a most unusual manner.

1.  God Can Use the Lowly to Do What Kings Cannot

     (2 Kings 5:1-8)

     The Hebrew girl had greater faith than a king and God

     used her simple message.

 
2.  God's Methods are Best, Even if They Seem Strange to Us

     (2 Kings 5:9-14)

     God wants people to obey, even when it does not seem

     to make sense.

 
3.  We Should Not Desire Glory or Reward for Obedience

     (2 Kings 5:15-27)

    Gehazi saw an opportunity to profit from what god had done,

     chased Naaman down, and lied.
