Pet Lions And Muddy Rivers

[Nineteen51]

But ### was angry and went away, saying, Behold, I thought that he would surely come out to me and stand and call upon the name of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the place and cure the leper. 2 Kings 5:11 ~ (READ ON for EXPLANATION)

### stared at his new skin with amazement when he came up out of the muddy water for the seventh time. The skin that had been covered in running sores was now smooth as a baby and he was completely healed.

In his mind though, he had seen this going much differently. The man of God should have come out to him, waved his hands, and said a long prayer. Instead he sent a messenger which told him to go wash in a muddy river. At first, ### went away angry, and remained sick. After thinking it over, he returned and did as instructed. He was healed.

You can ask God to help you, but don’t tell Him how to do it. He has multi-layered plans that in the end, are perfect. Ask Him and then just let Him handle it. ### gained some humility and was healed in the process. The Lion of Judah is not a pet that can be ordered around.
