Compassion with a Purpose – 2 Kings 5

"The king of Aram had great admiration for Naaman, the commander of his army, because through him the Lord had given Aram great victories. But though Naaman was a mighty warrior, he suffered from leprosy. … ⁴ So Naaman told the king what the young girl from Israel had said. ⁵ “Go and visit the prophet,” the king of Aram told him. “I will send a letter of introduction for you to take to the king of Israel.”… ⁶ The letter to the king of Israel said: “With this letter I present my servant Naaman. I want you to heal him of his leprosy.”… ⁸ But when Elisha, the man of God, heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes in dismay, he sent this message to him: “Why are you so upset? Send Naaman to me, and he will learn that there is a true prophet here in Israel.” ⁹ So Naaman went with his horses and chariots and waited at the door of Elisha’s house. ¹⁰ But Elisha sent a messenger out to him with this message: “Go and wash yourself seven times in the Jordan River. Then your skin will be restored, and you will be healed of your leprosy.”…. ¹⁴ So Naaman went down to the Jordan River and dipped himself seven times, as the man of God had instructed him. And his skin became as healthy as the skin of a young child, and he was healed! ¹⁵ Then Naaman and his entire party went back to find the man of God. They stood before him, and Naaman said, “Now I know that there is no God in all the world except in Israel…. ^17c  From now on I will never again offer burnt offerings or sacrifices to any other god except the Lord.”

If GOD did this for Naaman in order for him to get saved, how much more he would do for one of HIS own children who will recognize HIS deeds and will testify to the world what HE’ve done?!

I believe afterwards, Naaman was singing something like this following song; a victory song, all thru God’s mercy, compassion… LOVE!  A song like, "Love Lifted Me" by Alan Jackson.

Recommit your life to GOD today, to serve HIM and give the glory to HIM, and watch HIM take over your storm, and like Naaman give you VICTORY over what had you bounded. All for the glory of GOD!!!
