Podcast Introduction
Today we’ll read 2 Kings 1-5. Afterwards, I’ll have some thoughts to share with you. I’m calling today’s episode “It Can’t Be That Easy.”
Comments on 2 Kings 5
So this Naaman was an important guy, commander of the army of Syria. Note that Syria is not part of the Promised Land, and the Syrians are not part of God’s chosen people. As a matter of fact, one of the key people in this chapter was a young girl that was from Israel that had been captured by the Syrians.
And this girl, when she became aware that Naaman had leprosy, told him that there was a prophet who could cure him. This prophet was Elisha. This girl had huge faith. Elisha had never healed anyone of leprosy, but her faith was great.
Now here is an important fact about faith. It is not something that comes from us. It is a gift of God. There are many scriptures that tell us this, but I’ll just give you one for now. Hebrews 12:2 says that He is the author and finisher of our faith. Whatever faith we have comes from Him.
So God gave this young girl the faith that would move Naaman to seek out Elisha. And what happened when Elisha first told Naaman how to receive his healing? Naaman rejected it! It seemed too easy! “What? Wash in the Jordan?!?”
Why did he discount the prescription? First off, he expected more of a production…he expected some sort of hocus pocus and arm waving. Secondly, the Jordan was seen by this Syrian as “less than” one of his own rivers from his home.
Naaman had no faith in the cure.
But his servants said, “Hey, why not try it? What have you got to lose? What if it works? Isn’t it worth a try?”
And you know what happened. He went in the Jordan and was cured.
He was cured not because of his faith, but because of the glory that would come to God.
Naaman declared that he now believed that the Lord was the only God. And he committed to worship and sacrifice to only the Lord. Think of it. This man who was very important, and had thousands of people under his leadership declared that the God of the Hebrews is the one and only God. How many other people were changed by that declaration we do not know, but God saw to it that His name became known to an entire nation. And He did that through the faith He gave to one young slave girl.
What will God accomplish through you? You don’t need a pulpit. You don’t need a degree or a prestigious job or 10,000 followers on Twitter. All you need is the faith God gave you and the willingness to speak when He prompts you. Who knows what’ll happen?

Steve Webb 0:44
After Ahab died, Moab rebelled against Israel, a Uzziah fell out the window of his second storey room in scenario and was hurt. He sent messengers telling them, go to Ecrins god Baal Zebub and ask if I will recover from this injury. But the Lord’s messengers said to Elijah from tisby, go intercept the messengers of some areas King and ask them, Is it because there’s no God in Israel that you’re going to question? Ecrins god, Baal Zebub This is what the Lord says, You will never get out of the bed you’re lying in you will die for sure. So Elijah set off, the messengers returned to a messiah. He said to them, Why have you come back? They said to Him, a man Medicine said go back to the King who sent you say to him, this is what the Lord says. Is it because there’s no God in Israel that you’ve come to question Ecrins god Baal Zebub. Because of this, you will never get out of the bed you’re lying in you will die for sure. A as I said to them, describe the man who met you and said these things. They said to him, he wore clothes made of hair with a leather belt around his waist. A Hosea said that was Elijah from tisby. So a Uzziah set out a commander with 50 soldiers. The commander met up with Elijah while he was sitting on a hilltop, the commander said, Man of God, the king says come down. Elijah replied to the commander of the 50 soldiers. If I really am a man of God, may fire come down from the sky and burn up you and your 50 soldiers. Then fire came down from the sky and burned up the commander in his 50 soldiers, a desire of inset another commander with 50 soldiers. The commander said to Elijah, man of God, this is what the king says, hurry and come down. Elijah said to them, if I really am a man of God, may fire come down from the sky, and burn up you and your 50 soldiers. Then God’s fire came down from the sky and burned up the commander and his 50 soldiers. For a third time they his eyes and a commander with 50 soldiers. So the third commander arrived, he kneeled before Elijah and begged him, man of God, please have some regard for my life and the lives of these 50 soldiers who are Your servants, look, fire came down from the sky and burned up the two earlier commanders and their troops of 50. Soldiers, please have regard for my life. Then the Lord’s Messenger said to Elijah, go down with him. Don’t be afraid of him. So Elijah set out to go with him to the king. He Elijah said to the king, this is what the Lord says. Why did you send messengers to question Ecrins? god, Baal Zebub? Is there no God in Israel whose word you could seek? Because of this? You won’t ever get out of the bed you’re lying in, you’ll die for sure. So a as I had died in agreement with the Lord’s word that Elijah had spoken, because they Hosea had no son Joram became king after him in the second year of Judas king Jehoram, who was Jehoshaphat son, the rest of his eyes deeds, aren’t they written in the official records of Israel’s kings?

Now, the Lord was going to take Elijah up to heaven in a windstorm. And Elijah and Elijah were leaving Gilgal. Elijah said to Elijah, stay here because the Lord has sent me to Bethel. But Elijah said, As the Lord lives and you live, I won’t leave you. So they went down to Bethel. The group of prophets from Bethel came out to Elijah, these prophets said to Elijah, do you know that the Lord is going to take your master away from you today? Elijah said, Yes, I know, don’t talk about it. Elijah said, Elijah, stay here because the Lord has sent me to Jericho. But Elijah said, As the Lord lives and as you live, I won’t leave you. So they went to Jericho.
Steve Webb 4:47
The group of prophets from Jericho approached Elijah and said to him, do you know that the Lord is going to take your master away from you today? He said, Yes, I know. Don’t talk about it. He lives just said to Elijah, stay here because the Lord has sent me to the Jordan. But Elijah said, As the Lord lives and as you live, I won’t leave you. So both of them went on together. 50 members from the group of prophets also went along, but they stood at a distance. Both Elijah and Elijah stood beside the Jordan River. Elijah then took off his coat, rolled it up and hit the water. Then the water was divided into both of them crossed over on dry ground. When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elijah, what do you want me to do for you before I’m taken away from you? Elijah said, Let me have twice your spirit. Elijah said, you’ve made a difficult request. If you can see me when I’m taken from you, then it will be yours. If you don’t see me, it won’t happen. They were walking along talking, when suddenly a fiery chariot and fiery horses appeared and separated the two of them. Then Elijah went to heaven in a windstorm. Elijah was watching it, he cried out, oh, my father, my father, Israel’s chariots and its writers. When he could no longer see him. Elijah took hold of his clothes and rip them into. Then Elijah picked up the coat that had fallen from Elijah. He went back and stood beside the banks of the Jordan River. He took the coat that had fallen from Elijah and hit the water. He said, Where is the Lord Elijah is God. And when he hit the water he divided into Then Elijah crossed over. The group of prophets from Jericho saw him from a distance. They said, Elijah’s spirit is settled on Elijah. So they came out to meet him bowing down before him. Look, they told him, there are 50, strong men among us Your servants, please let them go and search for your master. Perhaps the Lord spirit has picked him up and put him down on some mountain or in some Valley. Elijah said, don’t send them. They insisted until he became embarrassed and said, Okay, send them. So they said 50 men who searched for three days, but they couldn’t find the Elijah. When these men returned to Elijah, who was staying in Jericho, he

said to them, didn’t I tell you not to go? The Citizen said to Elijah, as you can see, sir, this city is in a good location, but the water is bad and the land causes miscarriages. He said, Bring me a new bowl and put some salt in it. They did. So Elijah then went out and threw salt into the spring. He said, This is what the Lord has said, I have purified this water, it will no longer cause death and miscarriage. The water has stayed pure right up to this very day. in agreement with the word that Elijah spoke. Elijah went up from there to Bethel. As he was going up the road. Some young people came out of the city. They mocked him. Get going baldy get going. Baldy turning around, Elijah looked at them and curse them in the Lord’s name. Then two bears came out of the woods and mangled 42 of the youths from their Elijah went to Mount Carmel. And then back to Sumeria.

Second Kings chapter three.
Steve Webb 8:17
In the 18th, year of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah Jehoram, the son of Ahab became king over Israel and Sumeria and he reigned 12 years. He did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, though not like his father and mother, for he put away the pillar of bail that his father had made. Nevertheless, he clung to the sin of Jeroboam, the son of nee bat, which he made Israel to sin, He did not depart from it. Now Misha king of Moab was the sheep breeder, and he had to deliver to the king of Israel 100,000 lambs, and the wool of 100,000 rams. But when Ahab died, the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel. So king Jehoram marched out of scenario at that time and mustered all Israel. And he went and sent word to Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, the king of Moab has rebelled against me, will you go with me to battle against Moab? And he said, I will go, I am as you are my people as your people, my horses as your horses. Then he said, bye which way shall we march Jehoram answered, by the way of the wilderness of Edom. So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom. And when they had made a circuitous March of seven days, there was no water for the army or for the animals that followed them. Then the king of Israel said, Alas, the Lord has called these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab. And Jehoshaphat said, is there are no prophet of the Lord here through whom we may inquire of the Lord. Then one of the king of Israel servants answered, Elijah, the son of shea fat is here who poured water on the hands of Elijah. Jehoshaphat said, The word of the Lord is with him. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom went down to him. And Elijah said to the king of Israel, what have I to do with you go to the profits of your father into the profits of your mother. But the king of Israel said to him, No, it is the Lord who was called these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab. And Elijah said, As the Lord of hosts lives before whom I stand with, not that I have regard for Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, I would neither look at you nor see you. But now bring me a musician. And when the musician played, the hand of the Lord came upon him, and he said, Thus says the Lord, I will make this dry stream bed full of pools. For this says the Lord, You shall not see window rain, but that stream bed shall be filled with water, so that you shall drink you, your livestock and your animals. This is a light thing in the sight of the Lord. He will also give the Moabites into your hand, and you shall attack every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree and stop up all springs of water, and ruin every good piece of land with stones. The next morning, about the time of offering the sacrifice, behold, water came from the direction of Edom tell the country was filled with water. When all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, all, who were able to put on armor from the youngest to the oldest, were called out and were drawn up at the border. And when they rose early in the morning, and the sun shone on the water, the Moabite saw the water opposite them is read his blood. And they said, This is blood, the kings have surely fought together, instruct one another down, now then Moab, to the spoil. But when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose, instruct them all baits till they fled before them, and they went forward, striking the Moabites as they went, and they overthrew the cities, and on every good piece of land, every man threw a stone until it was covered. They stopped every spring of water and filled all the good trees, till only it stones were left in here, Harris F. And the slingers surrounded and attacked it. When the king of Moab saw that the battle was going against him, he took with him 700 swordsman to break through opposite the king of Edom, but they could not. Then he took his oldest son who was to rain in his place, and offered him for a burnt offering on the wall. And there came great wrath against Israel, and they withdrew from him, and returned to their own land.

Steve Webb 12:40
Now the wife of one of the sons of the prophets cry to Elijah, your servant, my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the Lord. But the creditor has come to take my two children to be his slaves. And Elijah said to her, what should I do for you? Tell me what have you in the house. And she said, Your servant has nothing in the house except a jar of oil. Then he said, go outside, borrow vessels from all your neighbor’s empty vessels in not too few, then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons, and pour into all these vessels. And when one is full, set it aside. So she went from him and shut the door behind herself and her sons. And as she poured, they brought the vessels to her. When the vessels were full, she said to her son, bring me another vessel. And he said to her, there is not another, then the oil stopped flowing. She came and told a man of God, and he said, Go sell the oil and pay your debts, and you and your sons can live on the rest. One day, Elijah went on to shoot him where a wealthy woman lived, who urged him to eat some food. So whenever he passed that way, he would turn in there to eat food. And she said to her husband, behold, now I know that this is a holy man of God, who is continually passing our way. Let us make a small room on the roof with walls and put there for him a bed, a table, a chair and a lamp. So that whenever he comes to us, he can go in there. One day, he came there, and he turned into the chamber and rested there. And he said to the hazai, his servant, call this Shulamite. When he had called her, she stood before Him. And He said to him, say now to her, see, you’ve taken all this trouble for us, what is to be done for you? Would you have a word spoken on your behalf to the king or the commander of the army? She answered, I dwell among my own people. And he said, What then is to be done for her gaze? I answered, well, she has no son and her husband is old. He said, color. And when he had called her, she stood in the doorway. And he said, at this season, about this time next year, you shall embrace the sun. And she said, No, my lord, oh man of God. Do not lie to your servant, but the woman can see And she bought her son about that time, the following spring, as Elijah had said to her, when the child had grown, he went out one day to his father among the Reapers. And he said to his father, Oh, my head, my head, the father said to his servant, carry him to his mother. And when he had lifted him and brought him to his mother, the child sat on her lap till noon, and then he died. And she went up and laid him on the bed of the man of God and shut the door behind him and went out. Then she called to her husband and said, send me one of the servants and one of the donkeys, that I may quickly go to the man of God and come back again. And he said, Why would you go to him today? It is neither New Moon nor Sabbath. She said, All as well. Then she saddled the donkey and she said to her servant, urge the animal on do not slack in the pace for me unless I tell you. So she set out in came to the man of God at Mount Carmel. When the man of God saw her coming, he said, to get hazai, his servant, look, there is the Shulamite run at once to meet her and say to her, is all well with you is all well with your husband is all well with the child. And she answered, all is well. And when she came to the mountain to the man of God, she caught hold of his feet, at a haze, I came to push her away. But the man of God said, Leave her alone, for she is in bitter distress, and the Lord is hidden it from me and has not told me. Then she said, Did I ask my lord for a son, Did I not say do not deceive me. He said, to get hazai, tie up your garment and take my staff in your hand and go, if you meet anyone, do not greet him. And if anyone greets you do not reply, and lay my staff on the face of the child. Then the mother of the child said, As the Lord lives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you. So he arose and followed her gaze, I went on ahead and laid the staff on the face of the child, but there was no sound or sign of life. Therefore, he returned to meet him and told him, the child is not awakened. When Elijah came into the house, he saw the child lying dead on his bed. So he went in and shut the door behind the two of them, and prayed to the Lord. Then he went up and lay on the child, putting his mouth on his mouth, he his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands. And as he stretched himself upon him, the flesh of the child became warm. Then he got up again and walked once back and forth in the house, and went up and stretched himself upon him. The child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes. Then he summoned the hazai and said, call this Shulamite. So he called her and when she came to him, he said, Pick up your son, she came and fell at his feet, bowing to the ground. Then she picked up her son and went out. And Elijah came again to Gill gal, where there was a famine in the land. And as the sons of the prophets were sitting before Him, He said to His servant, set on the large pot and boil stew for the sons of the prophets. One of them went out into the field to gather herbs and found a wild vine, and gathered from it his lap full of wild gourds, and came and cut them up into the pot of stew, not knowing what they were, and they poured out some for the men to eat. But while they were eating the stew, they cried out, oh man of God, there is death in the pot, and they could not eat it. He said, then bring flour, and he threw it into the pot and said, pour some out for the men that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot. A man came from bale Shasha, bringing the man of God bread of the first fruits, 20 loaves of barley, and fresh ears of grain in his sack. And Elijah said, Give to the men that they may eat. But a servant said, How can I set this before 100 men, so he repeated, give them to the men that they may eat. For thus says the Lord, they shall eat and have some left. So he said it before them and they ate and had some left according to the Word of the Lord.

Second Kings chapter five.
Steve Webb 19:12
Naaman commander of the army of the king of Syria was a great man with his master and in high favor, because by Him, the Lord had given victory to Syria. He was a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper. Now the Syrians on one of their raids had carried off a little girl from the land of Israel, and she worked in the service of namens wife. She said to her mistress, would that my Lord were with a prophet who was in some area, he would cure him of his leprosy. So Nam and went in and told his Lord, thus and so spoke the girl from the land of Israel. And the king of Syria said, Go now and I will send a letter to the king of Israel. So he went taking with him 10 talents of silver 6000 shekels of gold, and 10 changes of clothing and he brought about the letter to the king of Israel which read, when this letter reaches you know that I have sent to you Nam and my servant, that you may cure him of his leprosy. And when the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, Am I God to kill and to make alive that this man sends word to me to cure a man of his leprosy? only consider and see how he is seeking a quarrel with me. But when Elijah the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he said to the king saying, Why have you torn your clothes? Let him come now to me that he may know that there is a prophet in Israel. So naman came with his horses and chariots and stood at the door of Elijah’s house. And Elijah sent a messenger to him saying, Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored and you shall be clean. But naman was angry and went away, saying, Behold, I thought that he would surely come out to me and stand and call upon the name of the Lord his God, and wave his hand over the place and cure the leper, or not abernant And far part of the rivers of Damascus better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not washing them and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage. But his servants came near and said to him, My Father, it is a great word the prophet has spoken to you Will you not do it has he actually said to you wash and be clean. So he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of the Man of God, and His flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, and he was clean. Then he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and he came and stood before him, that he said, Behold, I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel, so accept now a present from your servant. But he said, As the Lord lives before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it. But he refused. Then Nam and said, If not, please let there be given to your servant to Him, you will loads of Earth for from now on, your servant will not offer burnt offering or sacrifice to any God, but the Lord. In this matter, may the Lord pardon your servant, when my master goes into the house of women to worship, they’re leaning on my arm, and I bow myself in the house of women, when I bow myself in the house of women, the Lord, pardon your servant in this matter, he said to him, Go in peace. But when namond had gone from him a short distance go hazai, the servant of Elijah, the man of God said, See, my master has spared this name and the Syrian in not accepting from his hand what he brought, as the Lord lives, I will run after him and get something from him. So go Hayes, I followed namun. And when Nam and saw someone running after him, he got down from the chariot to meet him and said, Is all well, and he said, All is? Well, my master has sent me to say, there have just now come to me from the hill country of efirium, to young men of the sons of the prophets, please give them a tablet of silver and two changes of clothing, and Nam and said, Be pleased to accept two talents. And he urged him and tied up two talents of silver in two bags with two changes of clothing, and laid them on two of his servants. And they carried them before the hazai. And when he came to the Hill, he took them from their hand, and put them in the house. And he sent them in a way and they departed. He went in and stood before his master. And Elijah said to him, Where have you been? Go hazai. And he said, Your servant went nowhere. But he said to him, did not my heart go when the men turn from his chariot to meet you? Was at a time to accept money and garments, all of orchards and vineyards, sheep and oxen, male servants and female servants. Therefore, the leprosy of namun shall cling to you and to your descendants forever. So he went out from his presence, a leper like snow.
Steve Webb 23:55
Well, Naaman was an important guy in chapter five, he was the commander of the army of Syria. Now, Syria is not part of the Promised Land, and the Syrians are not part of God’s chosen people. And as a matter of fact, one of the key people in this chapter was a young girl that was from Israel that had been captured by the Syrians. And this girl, when she became aware that naman had leprosy told him that there was a prophet who could cure him. The Prophet was Elijah. This girl had huge faith. Elijah had never healed anyone of leprosy, but her faith was great. Now, here’s an important fact about faith. It’s not something that comes from us. It’s a gift from God. There are several scriptures that talk about this, but I’ll give you just one for right now. Hebrews 12 Two says that God is the author and finisher of our faith, whatever faith we have comes from Him. So God gave this young girl the faith that would move name and to seek out Elijah. Do you remember what happened when Elijah first told name and how to receive his healing? He rejected it. It seemed too easy. What why? In the Jordan, it can’t be that easy. So he rejected the prescription first because he expected more of a production he expected some sort of hocus pocus and arm waving. And secondly, the Jordan was seen by this Syrian as less than one of his own rivers from his home Nam and had no faith in the cure. But his servant said, hey, why not try it? What have you got to lose? What if it works? Isn’t it worth a try? And of course, you know what happened he went into the Jordan and he was cured. Now he was cured not because of his faith, but because of the glory that would come to God. naman declared that he now believed that the Lord was the only God and he committed to worship and sacrifice to only the Lord. Think of it. This man who was very important, and had 1000s of people, under his leadership, declared that the God of the Hebrews is the one and only God. How many other people were changed by that declaration? We don’t know. But God saw to it that his name became known to an entire nation. And he did that through the faith he gave to that one young slave girl. What will God accomplish through you, you don’t need a pulpit, you don’t need a degree or a prestigious job or 10,000 followers on social media. All you need is the faith that God gave you and the willingness to speak when he prompts you. Who knows what will happen?

On this date in church history, march 8 1740. in Nottingham, Pennsylvania, colonial American Presbyterian revivalist Gilbert Tennent preached his famous sermon, the danger of an unconverted ministry. reaction by opponents of the Great Awakening produced the first split in the Presbyterian church into old side and new side factions. The two sides reunited in 1758. And on this date in church history, march 8 1887, Henry Ward Beecher died, he was the American congregational, clergyman, abolitionist orator and writer. He was the brother of Harriet Beecher Stowe and his dramatic flair made him a leading spokesman for tough social issues of the day.
Steve Webb 28:32
Let’s pray. Our heavenly Father, you are holy. And we thank you now for your grace and for your love toward us. We thank You, Lord, for yet another message on faith today in the reminder that any faith we have is from you, for whatever faith we now have, we thank you but we also ask you to increase our faith. Some of us have a little faith, some have more. But we can always use more Lord. In these turbulent times, it’s easy to take our eyes off of you and look at the events around us. Give us more faith to stay focused on you. You are after all on the throne of heaven and you’re sovereign. Nothing happens that you don’t allow. You are in control. And in you we find peace. Bless each Lifespring family member today.
