You know when you can't seem to understand something. Often we fail to understand how great God is. We can ask, 'God, open our eyes.' He will help us see or understand just how amazing he is!

The lesson for the story is a prayer, 'God, open our eyes.' Today we dove into 2 Kings 6:8-22. Elisha prayed a particular prayer that frames the lesson of this week. God answered Elisha's prayer. God opened the young man's eyes to the wonder of God. The young man saw the power of God in the midst of fear, war, and imminent battle. We can still ask this of God today.

The lesson is, Jesus invites us to unusual unity. Which is such a bizarre lesson considering the text you choose for us this week.

Imagine how incredible our world would be if everyone attempted to align themselves with Christ!
