We as believers, must adhere to the instructions of God and God alone, while never, ever, leaning on our own understanding in allowing our carnal man to counsel us, as the Word declares. Once the man of God gave the Word of God with the instructions for Naaman on how to be healed, he was supposed to take that Word at face value, and obey it as we are to do right now today when it comes to what the written Word of God says to us! But instead Naaman got highly upset, and refused the Word from the man of God due to his own preconceived notion as to how God would heal him, and he walked away. Thank God for the men and women who has access to us and will share their beliefs with us like the servants of Naaman, Naaman's servants place their faith in the Word of God, and trust that His Word will perform all that it says it will, they shared their views with Naaman and stated to him that if it was something big the man of God was instructing him to do, he would of done it. So why not trust him in going to the river of Jordan, and he did, and his healing followed immediately! We cant concern ourselves with the specifics of how God will move on our behalf, our assignment is to just place our faith in the Word(s) of God, and trust the Word of God to work the work of God on our behalf. When we try to reason with the move(s) of God, is when the mistakes come, every time. Amen.

Kevin,

Well said. We don't always know or understand the why or even what God will do when He asks us to do something. We are just to obey and leave the rest up to Him.

Amen gigi .
