If you were visited by a prophet and told that you were about to die and then instructed to "get your house in order". what would that mean to you? What would be your first priority. In today's story, the choice that was made in the face of this information was life-changing. Are we faithful enough to make the same choice?

Have you ever just gone along with the crowd because it's "just what everyone always does". We are at a moment in our current culture that people are beginning to question these norms... in some ways good and in others for the bad. Here in 2 Kings, the practice of just going along without questioning has led Israel to an unimaginable end... definitely a cautionary tale!

If I'm correct... that illness results from sin, then how do we explain the fact that Elisha dies from an illness? Doesn't that blow my theory out of the water, because surely Elisha is a holy man and above sin? It's a difficult question to grapple with, but we've got to fit the answer into the Bible as we read it as a whole if my theory of "Bible as Health Manual" is to have any legs.

I believe the Shunamite woman could have thought she had much to lose by witnessing to Jehoram, king of Israel. It certainly might not have looked on the surface like the most politically smart move. Nonetheless, she was blessed first with the miracle of getting her son back from the dead... she was blessed again by her willingness to witness about it... her choice! Free will cuts both ways- we are free to use our trials to testify to God's goodness (and witness yet another miracle as God uses that witness in His plans for those who hear), or not.

The story of the Shunamite woman and her borrowed bottles of oil is a balm to anyone who has ever been at their wits end wondering how they will cover the bills. This one feels personal. The lesson that we can't receive when our hands (or our jars) are already full is one of the most important ones I've learned over the past couple years.

The story about Elisha and the bears could be disturbing if we don't look closely at what is really happening. Is it a PSA from God about bullying? Is God spiteful or oversensitive? Or is it a warning to watch our words and our walk each and every minute of our lives?

Do you think of nature as passively serving us? I don't! I believe that nature (creation) is capable only of glorifying God- of mirroring God's design and intentions. But I don't think the animals, plants, rocks, soil, etc. are all just sitting around as inanimate objects for us to use. I think there is a will to support humanity in their work on God's path.... it is an interesting thing to ponder in light of the story of Elijah and the ravens- what do you think?

When you make a commitment, do you hedge your bets? Plan for what will happen if you fail, give up, or lose interest? When Elisha prepared to follow Elijah he burnt absolutely everything he had depended on to sustain him before meeting Elijah. Total commitment. What would happen if we followed God's plans for the health of our mind, body, and soul in the same way?

Truth Tellers are dangerous, uncomfortable and often convicting people. Our lives are influenced by them as we either welcome them into or banish them from our inner circles. But can truth impact our health?

God doesn't ever break his covenants... but he allows us the free will of breaking them from our end. You see, everything God offers us requires our input... sometimes it's as simple as our acceptance of the gift, but other times it takes real commitment on our part.

It's important we understand this concept. The health of our bodies is a covenant. He gave us a human body that was perfectly designed to heal and maintain health... we have the free will to break that covenant and follow our own path instead of maintaining it the way He commanded. Unfortunately, the consequences are similar to what we read about with Israel in I Kings.... we can lose our legacy for generations.
