Today’s Mission
Day 15
Reflection Day
Elisha’s Eyes
And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, LORD, so that he may see.”
Then the LORD opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw
the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
2 KINGS 6:17
Some days, it’s helpful to remember that we’re not alone in this battle. Today is one of those days.
This is your sabbath day, not a day to climb or strive or gut it out. It is a day to rest in the confidence that this is God’s work, even when (maybe especially when) we can’t see the results we want. While you rest, trust that God is busy at work behind the scenes, stirring and wooing those you have invited to join you in ministry with God’s kids.
Feel free to reflect on and pray through the questions under Today’s Mission, or simply wait to talk them through with your prayer partners when you meet in a few days. You’ve already scheduled your next meeting with your prayer partners, so take the freedom to fully detach and unplug from this project today.
Regardless, catch your breath and rest in the certainty that God is at work when we are not. May God bless you with the eyes of Elisha, who could see God’s Spirit at work when others were blind to it.
