In 2 Kings chapter 6, Elisha’s helper leaves the house and witnesses a tremendous earthly army at their doorstep (v.15). He is panicked. “Elisha, what can the two of us do?” I imagine him asking. While this was an instance from history, it speaks timeless truth. We can as quickly be swept away with fear and panic when we only use our physical eyes. Elisha reassures his helper and reminds him that those with them are greater in number. Elisha prays and asks God to open his helper’s spiritual eyes (vs. 16-17).
