Kaiser talks about a slave girl and her faith in Jehovah. The slave girl witnessed to Naaman’s wife and that opened the door for Naaman’s healing. She had faith in God that he would use his prophet to heal her master. It is amazing how one person can make a difference in someone’s life by just telling that individual about God.
What amazes me is that Naaman believed the slave girl and journeyed to a foreign land in search for Elisha. The slave girl’s faith impacted Naaman’s life and he was tired of his condition. Kaiser talks about Naaman’s success as a general and his social standings. It shows that Naaman was desperate to be healed because his condition was not becoming of a man of his stature.

The Jordan River was dirty and it was beneath Naaman to take a dip. Pride will prevent people from obtaining the blessings of God.

Naaman decided to take the advice from one of his servants and follow Elisha’s instructions. This was the best decision Naaman made and he was healed. Naaman’s healing would resonate throughout Syria and Yahweh’s name would be magnified. This is a great example of speading the gospel; and God was not limited to
