When God Doesn’t Do It For You
KEEP POUNDING
2 Kings 13:14-15 14 Elisha came down sick. It was the sickness of which he would soon die. So Jehoash king of Israel paid him a visit. When he saw him he wept openly, crying, “My father, my father! Chariot and horsemen of Israel!” 15 Elisha told him, “Go and get a bow and some arrows.” …
2 Kings 13:18-20 18 “Now pick up the other arrows,” said Elisha. He picked them up. Then he said to the king of Israel, “Pound the ground.” The king struck the ground three times and then quit. 19 The Holy Man became angry with him: “Why didn’t you hit the ground five or six times? Then you would beat Aram until he was finished. As it is, you’ll defeat him three times only.” 20 Then Elisha died and they buried him. (MSG)
Don’t stop when you see God stop. Stop when God says stop.
KEEP IT REAL
2 Kings 2:12-13 12 Elisha saw this and cried out, “My father! My father! The chariots and horsemen of Israel!” And Elisha saw him no more. Then he took hold of his garment and tore it in two. 13 Elisha then picked up Elijah’s cloak that had fallen from him and went back and stood on the bank of the Jordan. 14 He took the cloak that had fallen from Elijah and struck the water with it. “Where now is the Lord, the God of Elijah?” he asked. When he struck the water [again], it divided to the right and to the left, and he crossed over. (NIV)

God is not afraid of your authenticity; He’s after it.

2 Kings 13:20-21 Then Elisha died and they buried him. (MSG)
2 Kings 13:20-21 Sometime later, raiding bands of Moabites, as they often did, invaded the country. One day, some men were burying a man and spotted the raiders. They threw the man into Elisha’s tomb and got away. When the body touched Elisha’s bones, the man came alive, stood up, and walked out on his own two feet. (MSG)
Wait till you see what God does, with what He didn’t do.
