A great cloud of witnesses are watching us

Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Español)

RESUMEN: Elisha refused to accept any material reward from Naaman, which is a testimony of how things are done in the Kingdom of God. Gehazi, Elisha's servant, devised a terrible plan and took presents from Naaman without Elisha's knowledge, which resulted in terrible consequences for Gehazi. God sees the things we do in the dark, and sooner or later, we have to pay some consequence for our actions. The servant of God should be focused on only one thing and consecrated to their priesthood. We must be careful not to tarnish or lower the height in which we must walk as servants of the Lord. We should aim to be like Elisha and walk in integrity all our lives.

Elisha refuses to accept any material reward from Naaman and we see that this is another element of that process of confrontation and training, and testimony of how things are done in the Kingdom of God as opposed to how they are done in the world. .

God was, again, teaching us how we should handle the ministry, the life of Christian leadership, our behavior in the world, how we witness to unbelievers, and how we often misrepresent the Word of the Lord in them. times when we have many ministries that do not show that integrity that should be shown in the things of God.
