YAHWEH, OPEN OUR EYES
SCRIPTURE
2 KINGS 6:15-20
15. When the servant of the man of God rose early in the morning and went out, behold, an army with horses and chariots was all around the city. And the servant said, “Alas, my master! What shall we do?”
16. He said, “Do not be afraid, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”
17. Then Elisha prayed and said, “O Lord, please open his eyes that he may see.” So the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw, and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
18. And when the Syrians came down against him, Elisha prayed to the Lord and said, “Please strike this people with blindness.” So he struck them with blindness in accordance with the prayer of Elisha.
19. And Elisha said to them, “This is not the way, and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you seek.” And he led them to Samaria.
20. As soon as they entered Samaria, Elisha said, “O Lord, open the eyes of these men, that they may see.” So the Lord opened their eyes and they saw, and behold, they were in the midst of Samaria.

WISDOM
The word for "OPEN" in Hebrew is Patsah, meaning to part. In the above scripture we see Elisha asking Yahweh to open the eyes of his servant so that he could see that there was more with them than against them. In our life, we should trust God and ask Him to let us see that we have an army on our side no matter what the enemy is planning or trying to sabotage, that we are victorious. Sometimes Yahweh allows us to come so close to the edge that we almost fall off but we have to remember Who is in charge. So, I'm asking Father open our eyes to see that there is more for us than against us, that there is an army on our side and the battle has already been won we just have to watch it play out. Thank you for the victories !!!!!
