Who woulda’ thunk?

2 Kings 7, 8

Samaria was under siege. The Syrian army had it cutoff from supply. They were starving. It was the worst of times.

Four lepers sat at the city gate and said to themselves, “We can’t go in. So, let’s go toward our enemy and see if, per chance, they will mercifully let us live.” They found the enemies camp abandoned and their goods left behind. Bingo! (God had scared them off with one of His miracles of deception.)

Elisha had predicted that something like this would happen.

In the direst of circumstances God can easily perform one of His miracles and turn the tables on our enemies. Who woulda’ thunk that four society outcasts would be the heroes?
