In the Kingdom of God there is power but that power is unleashed through humility

(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: Naaman tries to use the methods of the world, such as power and influence, to obtain his miracle from God. However, in the Kingdom of God, things work differently where the humble and broken are the ones who receive blessings. The king of Syria's letter to the king of Israel uses language of power and disrespect, which reminds us of how the world operates. In the Kingdom of God, humility is expected of leaders and superiors. God wants simple and humble hearts, and paradoxically, those leaders who are gentle and humble of heart are the ones God will use with the most power. In the Kingdom of God, power is unleashed through humility, weakness, love, compassion, simplicity of heart, and mutual accountability.

Naaman begins to move towards his miracle using the methods of the world, using tricks of power and influence and money, believing that in this way he can get from God what he needs but that God had another plan. Before we receive what God wants, we have to stop trying to use the mechanisms of the world; the manipulation of the world, the techniques of strength and false manhood to get our way.

And in this case we see that Naaman launches towards his miracle obtaining letters of authority from Syria who is very willing to write the recommendation letter so to speak, Naaman gets luxurious clothes and money, and all these things with which he tries to bribe or pay him to the prophet Elisha for the miracle that he needs but we say that in the Kingdom of God things do not work like that, but rather they operate according to contrary methods where the humble and the simple of heart is the one who receives the miracle of God, the broken person It is the person that God blesses, not the haughty-eyed person as the Bible says, because God looks at such people from afar. So God wanted to do more in Naaman than just a physical miracle.
