Gman4326 Miracle Primer

By Gman4326

Miracles are a form of magic that work under the creative order.
These were mighty signs and wonders done by a unique group
of individuals.
What was the circumstance that led to each event. Who gave
them the ability, method used; and who is honored by the
miracle preformed.
Each of these greater creatures came from the dust of the
earth. Just like you and me. The sacred scriptures copied
from Biblical Greek and Hebrew into English only knows
of word for word; and thought for thought. And, not in
minute detail that a history book on the life and times of a
prophet would.
God did show favoritism even when the new covenant period
came around. The favored ones were his devout prophets.
Each one of them were the pre-figure of Jesus Christ.

Prophet Elisha (860-795BC)
Based on 2Kings 5
While Israel was still in active rebellion towards God.
A Commander of a regional superpower sends a letter to the
king of Israel. He was seeking help for a common disease.
Up until now, he sought aide from local demonic soothsayers.
That is when he heard of a man who serve God. Living in the
Northern Kingdom. Protocol was to ignore the letter, as it
came from this Regional Superpower. However, the man in
question was close by. He begins by saying, my lord let him
enter the Good Shepherd land and have the Commander.
Dunk himself in the Jordan River seven times. The the king
gave the foreign commander what the prophet said to him.
Hmph!!

MOST FOUL LOCAL RIVERS. I must speak to this Samaritan
Soo-th-sayer and demand a change of venue.
Several days later
Soothsayer, I need a word with you. I'll pay whatever amount
you need. So i demand you change the venue of where i get
cleansed. One, i have a name and two you must dunk yourself
seven times in the Jordan River.I will give you status,
wealth. If you allow me to bathe in
one of the Syrian Rivers. What is your name, ask the prophet?
My name is Naaman, responds the Commander.
I'm not a soothsayer. But a servant of the true ruler of the
universe. My job title is of a prophet. I don't ask for
wealth or a nobleman title. If you want to be healed of your
skin disease. Dunk yourself in the Jordan River seven times,
says the Prophet Elisha in a clear demanding tone of voice.
Yes, Prophet, says the Commander.
