GET YOUR EDGE BACK:RIDICULOUS RECOVERY

1 The company of the prophets said to Elisha, “Look, the place where we meet with you is too small for us. 

2 KINGS 6:1-7

2 Let us go to the Jordan, where each of us can get a pole; and let us build a place there for us to meet.” And he said, “Go.” 

2 KINGS 6:1-7

3 Then one of them said, “Won’t you please come with your servants?” “I will,” Elisha replied. 

2 KINGS 6:1-7

4 And he went with them. They went to the Jordan and began to cut down trees. 

2 KINGS 6:1-7

5 As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axhead fell into the water. “Oh no, my lord!” he cried out. “It was borrowed!” 

2 KINGS 6:1-7

6 The man of God asked, “Where did it fall?” When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, and made the iron float. 

2 KINGS 6:1-7

7 “Lift it out,” he said. Then the man reached out his hand and took it. 

2 KINGS 6:1-7

You diligently

study the

Scriptures because

you think that by

them you possess

eternal life. These

are the Scriptures

that testify about

me

John 5:39

When you read the OT, you need to read it with

the understandi

ng.Its not just a

story

When you read the OT, you need to read it with the

understanding. It’s not just a story

It’s actually written how God works in the lives

of people

Because when we read the NT, it is always

Christ centered, so that we know who God is;

what has He done; His covenant with and

everything

2 KINGS 6:1-7

Transition (change, change over,

move, switch, conversion)

The people and Elisha was very

happy serving God; learning and growing and

maturing in the things of God

The bible says, they that walk with the Lord, they should go

from strength to strength.Because God wants you to

bring from one level of glory to another level of glory.

The growth is always going to

happen

But the most important thing that

we need to understand is “be sensitive for what God is doing.

And always ask this question… why do I feel in my heart that I need

to grow? I need to enlarge? Need to

expand? etc.

The most important thing issue here is not that God that want you to grow, but the most

important thing is why do you want to grow?

Selfish Level (This place is too

small for us)

They are not so grateful and not

happy

when God is going to do something in your life ,

you are there in the place where you are rejoicing, happy contented, growing

and there is a sense of excitement

CONCLUSION:

I want you to

understand that there

is a need in all of us

that

GOD KNOWS HOW TO

HELP YOU FIND 

WHAT YOU DIDN’T MEAN

TO LOSE.

HOW

EDGE?(perimeter,
