KEY VERSE:
II Kings 6: 23 “So he prepared for them a great feast; after they ate and drank, he sent them on their way, and they went to their master. And the Arameans no longer came raiding into the land of Israel.”

FAITH STORY:
II Kings 6: 8-23

FAITH FOCUS:
The King of Aram was at war with Israel, and the prophet Elisha kept warning the King of Israel about the movements of the Arameans so they could remain safe. This angered the King of Aram and he demanded to know who the traitor in his midst was. When told it was the prophet in Israel, he sent a great army to capture Elisha. When the army arrived, Elisha prayed for the eyes of the Arameans’ eyes to be blinded. After their eyes were blinded, he led them to the King of Israel. The King of Israel asked Elisha if he should kill them, but Elisha told him to feed them and send them home. This act of mercy and non-resistance put a temporary end to the raiding by the Arameans.
