When God is Silent

 

Today's verse is 2 Kings 4:27

And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught him by the feet: but Gehazi came near to thrust her away. And the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is vexed within her: and the LORD hath hid it from me, and hath not told me. 

    Most of the time, when a petitioner seeks out a Prophet in scripture, we see that God had forewarned that Prophet, yet here God did not. It is without a doubt that Elisha walked with his God, so when God is silent, it is a time to be patient, and allow the events to unfold, remembering our God has not forsaken us, but will work in and through us according to his already revealed Word. Amen.

To God be the Glory

Scott
