God’s Healing is for Eternity

Then Joshua charged them at that time, saying, “Cursed be the

man before the LORD who rises up and builds this city Jericho; he
shall lay its foundation with his firstborn, and with his youngest he
shall set up its gates.” Joshua 6:26
 In Ahab’s time, Hiel of Bethel rebuilt Jericho. He laid its
foundations at the cost of his firstborn son Abiram, and he set up
its gates at the cost of his youngest son Segub, in accordance
with the word of the LORD spoken by Joshua son of Nun. 1 Kings
16:34
 The Disease
Then the men of the city said to Elisha, “Please
notice, the situation of this city is pleasant, as
my lord sees; but the water is bad, and the
ground barren.” 2 Kings 2:19

*but the water is bad
*the ground is barren/the land is unproductive
 The Cure
And he said, “Bring me a new bowl, and put salt
in it.” So they brought it to him. Then he went
out to the source of the water, and cast in the
salt there... 2 Kings 2:20,21

*a new bowl with salt

8 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony
of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share
with me in the sufferings for the gospel
according to the power of God, 9 who has saved
us and called us with a holy calling, not
according to our works, but according to His
own purpose and grace which was given to us in
Christ Jesus before time began, 10 but has now
been revealed by the appearing of our Savior
Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and
brought life and immortality to light through the
gospel. 2 Timothy 1:8-10
But God demonstrates His own love toward us,
in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for
us. Romans 5:8
 The Result
Elisha said, “Thus says the LORD: ‘I have healed
this water; from it there shall be no more death
or barrenness.’ ” So the water remains healed to
this day, according to the word of Elisha which
he spoke. 2 Kings 2:21,22
Until now the spring is sustaining agriculture in the area.
“Though we cannot see the Spirit of God, we know that
men who have been dead in trespasses and sins, become
convicted and converted under its operations. The
thoughtless and wayward become serious. The hardened
repent of their sins, and the faithless believe. The
gambler, the drunkard, the licentious, become steady,
sober, and pure. The rebellious and obstinate become
meek and Christlike. When we see these changes in the
character, we may be assured that the converting power
of God has transformed the entire man. We saw not the
Holy Spirit, but we saw the evidence of its work on the
changed character of those who were hardened and
obdurate sinners. As the wind moves in its force upon the
lofty trees and brings them down, so the Holy Spirit can
work upon human hearts, and no finite man can
circumscribe the work of God.” EGW, Ev 288.2
