Written by In 2 Kings 6-7, we read the story about Elisha and the Samaritan famine. Elisha was in Samaria at the time of great desperation and famine. It was so bad that women were eating each other’s children.
Not only was their famine in the land, but there was an army of Syrians camped around the entire city, keeping out the flow of supply into their town.
It was so bad that people were buying dung from birds and paying 80 shekels for a donkey’s head…
Have you ever experienced extreme poverty like that?
Elisha spoke and said that the next day the entire economy would be healed. Instead of bird droppings, people would be buying wheat and barley.
Over night, the Syrian army that was camped around the city heard a noise of chariots and armies. They were so spooked that they left all that they had on the doorstep of Samaria. In fact, they left their horses and stripped their garments in the road as they ran home.
Could you imagine this sight to the people of Samaria when they found out this happened? The king thought it was a hoax, that the Syrians were waiting for the them around the corner or something.
But, God supplied what He said He would.
I am believing that for all of us, that God would send a sound that would scare off the enemy who has been blocking your supply in and out of your life and business.
Believe with me that God can and will change your economy in a day!
