Does the counting. And the worrying.
I look after Elisha day to day. I’ve set out twenty loaves for a hundred men, and I’ve stepped outside to find an army round the town.
IsraelFirst seen 2 Kings 4:38
A man from Baal-shalishah brought twenty barley loaves from the first of his harvest. Elisha said give it to the people. I said: how am I meant to put twenty loaves in front of a hundred men? He said the LORD says they’ll eat and have some left over. They ate. There was some left over.
They’ve found out we’re in Dothan. Got up early, went outside, and there’s an army round the town. Horses. Chariots. Asked Elisha what on earth we do now. He said don’t be afraid, there are more with us than with them. He prayed: LORD, open his eyes so he can see. And I saw. The hills are full of horses and chariots of fire, all round Elisha.
