He was also a mighty man of valor, <i>but<\/i> a leper.\u201d The description of Naaman was described as a commander; an army of high order; great and honorable man. Above all of the description, there was a \u201cbut\u201d in Naaman\u2019s life. A \u201cbut\u201d in his life represent a box or a mark that reduced him beyond any man\u2019s help. Does that sound like your challenge in any area of life? Does it feel like you have been boxed by your challenge that is beyond any man\u2019s help? Is there any mark upon your life that does not settle well with you any area of life? A \u2018but\u201d can possibly be a negative mark clouding man\u2019s destiny or a stigma that needs to be busted open. <b><i>Naaman was a <\/i><\/b>leper. As a commander, he fought successive wars for Syria but yet his \u201cbut\u201d stood out to reduce him. Evidently, all his achievements were not outside of God that he did not know and yet he was a leper. Naaman was a notable leper who could not be expected with such a mark despite what the Lord used him to achieve.<\/p>\n<p>Have you accepted to accommodate any condition that does not settle well with your life? Until a need for recovery is settled in the heart the resolve to go for recovery will always be out of place. The mark of \u201cbut\u201d in Naaman\u2019s life brought him to the point of deliverance from empty pride. When he approached the ground of miracle, the empty pride in him was busted open and humility took its reign. The bible recorded,<b><i> \u201cAnd Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, \u2018Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored to you, and you shall be clean.\u2019 11 But Naaman became furious, and went away and said, \u2018Indeed, I said to myself, He will surely come out to me, and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the place, and heal the leprosy.\u2019\u201d (2 Kings 5:10-11)<\/i><\/b> Naaman eventually got the message. After his role-play of pride, he rolled himself to obey the command of the prophet of God. Naaman went and wash in the Jordan River and was cleansed. God sent His word to heal and to deliver; if any will dive into His word recovery shall answer. Jesus the living Word of God declared, <b><i>\u201c\u2026I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.\u201d (John 10:10)<\/i><\/b> Engage the living word for a full recovery.<\/p>\n<p><b>Prayer for today:<\/b> <i>Ask God to cleanse you from every \u201cbut\u201d that has marked you negatively.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Faith Capsule: Do not accommodate any condition that does not settle well with your life. 2 Kings 5:1-15 It is written, \u201cNow Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Syria, was a great and honorable man in the eyes of his master, because by him the Lord had given victory to Syria.
