An Example of a Godly Woman With Faith
By Zac Poonen02KI 4:8Zac Poonen highlights the story of a wealthy and godly woman from 2 Kings 4:8-37, who recognized Elisha as a holy man of God through his conduct rather than his sermons. Her thoughtful actions, such as providing a guest-room for Elisha, exemplify the characteristics of a godly woman. When her son died, her unwavering faith led her to seek Elisha instead of despairing, demonstrating her deep trust in God. Elisha's prayer, prompted by her faith, resulted in the miraculous resurrection of her child, showcasing the power of faith in God's ability to perform miracles. This woman's story serves as an inspiration, reminding us that God blesses those who exhibit faith, regardless of their social status.
