Today's Passage: 2 Kings 6:1-7
​​

Get to know your bible. It will become a good friend.
​
This passage NASB version on Bible Gateway here.
You can search for other versions there as well. Versions even in foreign languages.



2.
Invite God to join you in your reading and ask Him for wisdom.
If there is anything in your spirit hindering you, confess it now.
It is okay, He knows it anyway. Bring it to Him and ask Him for help, remember you are already forgiven, as Him to help you as you embrace that truth and live it out.


a prayer:
Thank You for meeting me, LORD.
I welcome you into this place.
Please prepare my heart Jehovah.
Thank you, Omnipotent God for insight.

Oh My.

​
  • Begin with asking God for guidance. Remember He is the author.
  • Are there one or more main characters, other than the Trinity, in the passage?
  • Re-read the passage and ask God to lead you to the one character this day He wants to reveal Himself through.
  • Write the character's name down.
  • List the characters personality traits, or characteristics.
  • Can you relate to any of the these personality traits or characteristics?
  • How does God relate to that person in this passage?
  • How does God relate to you?
  • Bring yourself into His presence. Do you need to confess? Do you need to thank? Remember His love is everlasting. He will never leave you nor forsake you.
  • Praise God for revelation and guidance.


24. Some time later, however, King Benadad of Aram mustered his entire army and besieged Samaria.
25. As a result, there was a great famine in the city. The siege lasted so long that a donkey's head sold for eighty pieces of silver, and a cup of dove's dung sold for five pieces of silver.

26. One day as the king of Israel was walking along the wall of the city, a woman called to him, "Please help me, my lord the king!"

27. He answered, "If the LORD doesn't help you, what can I do? I have neither food from the threshing floor nor wine from the press to give you."
28. But then the king asked, "What is the matter?"

She replied, "This woman said to me: 'Come on, let's eat your son today, then we will eat my son tomorrow.'
29. So we cooked my son and ate him. Then the next day I said to her, 'Kill your son so we can eat him,' but she has hidden her son."

30. When the king heard this, he tore his clothes in despair. And as the king walked along the wall, the people could see that he was wearing burlap under his robe next to his skin.
31. "May God strike me and even kill me if I don't separate Elisha's head from his shoulders this very day," the king vowed.

32. Elisha was sitting in his house with the elders of Israel when the king sent a messenger to summon him. But before the messenger arrived, Elisha said to the elders, "A murderer has sent a man to cut off my head. When he arrives, shut the door and keep him out. We will soon hear his master's steps following him."

33. While Elisha was still saying this, the messenger arrived. And the king siad, "All this misery is from the LORD! Why should I wait for the LORD any longer?"
2 KIngs 6:24-33 NLT
