Every year as I read through the bible I get to
experience the never depleted truths and revelations of God’s Word. It’s
active, and it’s powerful as it changes the very core of man. As I began my reading in 2 Kings I came
across an amazing story (though there are many more throughout the
scriptures), which brings me to the resolve, that God's plans are both precise
and timely.
In 2 Kings (8:3) The Shunammite woman went to
make an appeal to the king. (8:5) As Gehazi was telling the
king about the Shunammite woman...there came the woman. There are two
confirming words in this story. As the woman went (walked), the king
talked, inquiring about the miracles Elijah had done, (which a couple of them
involved her).
Don’t you know that God will govern thoughts and
conversations of those in authority as it pertains to you? Yet, if
this woman had not gone, the conversation about her would not have taken place
because there would have been no need.
When she arrives Gehazi said, "My lord, oh
king! This is the woman". I can imagine he was saying, "Can you
believe this! Can you believe this! We were just talking about her and she
shows up, can you believe this"! The king gets to hear about
these incredible miracles from the woman who experienced them. She
was like a Celebrity!
Verse 6 When the king asked the woman, she related it to him. So the king appointed for her a certain officer, saying, "Restore all that was hers and all the produce of the field from the day that she left the land even until now."
Verse 6 When the king asked the woman, she related it to him. So the king appointed for her a certain officer, saying, "Restore all that was hers and all the produce of the field from the day that she left the land even until now."
Yes, God's plans are both precise and timely, as
He orchestra's His divine will for our lives.
