The Axe head will swim again (2 Kings 6:1-7)
Prayer: 1. Where I have failed in the past, I will succeed exceedingly in Jesus name 2. I recover every good thing I have lost in Jesus name. 3. My buried blessings, arise and locate me by fire in Jesus name. In 2 Kings 6:1-7, the Bible declares that: The Axe Head Floats 1And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us. 2Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye. 3And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go. 4So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood. 5But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed. 6And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim. 7Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it. In this story, the Bible school students had a problem, the place they were using had become too small for them. They wanted to get out of their confined restricted position to move to a bigger and better place. They resolved to go to the river Jordan to cut down wood, obtain materials to be used for the building expansion project. They invited the man of God to go with them. This was a very wise decision. Always make sure God is with you as you go into life’s projects. The man of God, Elisha, carried God’s presence with him, he was God’s representative. As they continued in the materials acquisition process, the instrument they were using – the axe head - fell into the river. Since it was made of metal it sank into the river, with no hope of recovery. Have you ever lost something and it looks as if it is lost forever? The heightened exasperation, frustration and fear that possibly enveloped these students was also the lender borrower factor. The axe head that was lost was borrowed. Not only had they lost the means of achieving their goals of expansion, they still have to ‘return’ the axe head to the owner/lender. It was a situation of dire straits – how do I even begin to figure out how I ended up in this situation? How did I even get here? How do I move forward from where? To where should I go? How do I resolve this or get out of this situation? The God who delivers His children from difficult and impossible situations will deliver you and yours today in the name of Jesus. They informed the man of God about the situation, he cut a stick, threw the stick into the river, the stick (wood) that should float, sank, went to the iron with the anointing, touched the iron axe head, the iron axe head began to rise to the surface of the river, rose to the surface of the river and began to swim. What was lost will be recovered to you in Jesus name By the grace and anointing of God, recover the good things you have lost in Jesus name. The power of the Most-High God will raise up for you your blessings that have sank in Jesus name.
