Page 32 - Shalom: The Peace That Comes From Being Whole

It happened at the end of seven years, the
woman returned from the land of the Philis-
tines, and she went to appeal to the king about
her house and her field.
The king had been speaking with Gehazi, the
attendant of the man of God, when [Gehazi]
was telling him about how [Elisha] had revived
the dead [boy], behold—the woman whose son
he had revived was appealing to the king about
her house and her field!
Gehazi exclaimed, “My lord, the king! This is
the woman, and this is her son whom Elisha
had revived!”
The king asked the woman, and she told him
[that it was true]. The king then designated a
certain servant for her, saying [to him], “Return
everything that is hers, as well as all the pro-
duce of the land from the day she left the land
to the present.”
Oh! What timing! And, yes, God keeps His
own Word, His own principles. He is the God
of Peace and His covenant with His People is
the covenant of peace! Shalom: The Peace that
comes from being whole.
