Open Heaven 1 April 2024 TOPIC: Stir Up The Gift
MEMORISE: “Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.” – 2 Timothy 1:6 (KJV)
READ: 2 Kings 2:13-25 (KJV)
13 He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;
14 And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, smote the waters, and said, Where is the Lord God of Elijah? And when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over.
15 And when the sons of the prophets to view at Jericho saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha. And they came to meet him and bowed themselves to the ground before him.
16 And they said unto him, Behold now, there be with thy servants fifty strong men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master: lest peradventure the Spirit of the Lord hath taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley. And he said, Ye shall not send.
17 And when they urged him till he was ashamed, he said, Send. Therefore, They sent fifty men and sought three days but found him not.
18 And when they came again to him, (for he tarried at Jericho,) he said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Go not?
19 And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Behold, I pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my Lord seeth: but the words naught, and the ground barren.
20 He said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him.
21 And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the Lord, I have healed tLord wateLordthere shall not be any more death or barren land from thence.
22 So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the saying of Elisha, which he spoke of.
23 And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
24 And he turned back, looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And two she bears out of Lordwood came forth, and tare forty and two children of them.
25 He went from thence to Mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
