Open Our Eyes Lord


Today’s Scripture: And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.2 Kings 6:17

Song To Meditate on: Open the eyes of my heart (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wutmEjdbedE)

In today’s scripture the king of Aram was at war with God’s people in Israel. Each time the Arameans set up a place to attack, God would tell Elisha who would then tell the King of Israel. They would go a different way and avoid trouble. After many times of avoiding an attack, the king of Aram decided that someone in his army was telling his secrets to the king of Israel.  His army told him that no one in the army was sharing secrets. They explained that Elisha was telling the king of Israel what was going on. They knew that he was a man from God.  When the king heard this, he sent out a large group of army soldiers to find him. They found him in the city of Dothan. The king sent a large group of soldiers, horses and chariots to get Elisha. They traveled by night and totally surrounded the city.  The next morning, Elisha’s servant woke up and he was shocked and scared because he saw soldiers everywhere. He ran to Elisha to tell him the news.  Elisha encouraged his servant and prayed to God and asked Him to open his servant’s eyes to see what God was going to do.

Ladies many times we are afraid when we are faced with a situation because we cannot see what God is doing in our lives. Our first reaction is to panic or become anxious because like Elisha’s servant we are unable to see the plans God has for us. Sometimes we are placed in a situation so that God can complete his divine plan for us. Therefore today ladies next time you are faced with a daunting situation ask God to open up your eyes. Ask Him to open up your eyes so that you might see the plans that he has for you. Ladies Jeremiah 29:11 tells us that God plans for us are good plans, so all we have to do is to trust Him. Therefore instead of being afraid ask God to reveal what He is doing in your life.

Have A God Filled Day Ladies

Let’s Pray

Lord Jesus thank you for actively working in our lives, today we ask that you open up our spiritual eyes so that we will see the plans you have for us .
In Jesus Name
Amen
