The events surrounding the life of Elisha are at very least, extraordinary. When I read about these events I find myself wishful for the same display of God and His power in this time in which I live.
I know a lot of people have a lot of 'religious-speak' to explain why prophets and such miraculous events are not present today, but I cannot help but think the ptoblem lies more with the condition of mankind.
It could be argued that events like Elisha were part do in fact still occur but I simply do kot know it or am too ignorant to recognize it. But, just as Elisha became a pubicly known figure, wouldn't a modern-day prophet surely be known today with modern media so prevalent? Would not You Tube and email forwards be teaming with not only accounts but actual videos of such events?
I know that Jesus left mankind with instructions to walk in miraculous faith. Where is that faith today?
Father, my prayer is simple today... Let faith experience a genuine revival today and let it be for the glory of Your name!
