(2 Kings 13 v 20 & 21)
OK, things may have been a bit tough.
Maybe very tough.
But we're not dead yet, unlike the prophet.
However, we may just feel a bit "dead" sometimes
You know - on the inside.
Of course where we need to change (or repent)
We should.
(Get back into fellowship and recharge, or spend some time in the presence of God).
But let's not pretend that if we feel that we don't have any power
That we actually don't.
Because, even when he was dead, and buried,
God's power worked through the prophet's bones.
Bringing life to another (who was really dead).
Whenever we think that we are having a "dry day"
Let's consider the Source
And this thought:
God's power worked through a dead man who was devoted to him.
Now, that is something to think about!
