Another Bible Miracle with Elisha which illustrates the truth that a good person’s influence lives on after them!

 

Once, as the Israelites were burying a man, suddenly they saw a band of raiders, so they threw the man’s body into Elisha’s tomb. And as soon as his body touched the bones of Elisha, the man was revived and stood up on his feet. 

~2 Kings 13:21 

Another Bible miracle with Elisha which illustrates the truth that a good person’s influence lives on after them! This blog is all about the miracles of God! This Bible verse shows another one! The power of a good person’s influence lives on after they die. What a blessing! Miracles are abound, when we trust and believe in God and His power and when we live upright and holy lives! Today we see so many people who do so much bad, they seek power, are greedy, corrupt, commit fraud, scheme, lie, cheat, steal, slander and hurt others, we see a lot of very ambitious people, they will stoop to anything, mostly out of envy, jealousy, insecurity, and the need for power to bring down others. They do not live upright and holy lives like Elisha did. Like Jesus did! Like St. Mother Teresa did! We need to follow such examples. God gave us Jesus as our example, He is our model to follow as we live, we are called to reflect, imitate, and love like Jesus! 

The Mornings With God App today said, "This was certainly a miracle. It illustrates the truth that a good person’s influence lives on after them. There’s a story about an old monk who was shipwrecked on a deserted island. He had a package of seeds, which he scattered across the barren land. He died there, but twenty years later, people came to the island and found it covered with harvests and fruit trees, the result of the seeds the monk had planted. In the same way, those who live well leave behind seeds of beauty wherever they go. There’s a legend about the Empress Helena searching for the true cross. Three crosses were found, and they placed a dead body on each. When the body touched the true cross, it came back to life. Although this is only a legend, it illustrates a truth: the power of Christ always brings life and healing."

Yes, the power of Christ always brings life and healing! Like Jesus, we need to live upright lives, like Elisha did, after he died, his bones still had power in them to heal. Jesus can heal too. There are so many Bible verses showing all the healings of Jesus. I have shared them here on this blog, Miracles of God quite often! There is power in the name of Jesus! We need to scatter love, we need to scatter goodness, we need to be like Joseph, although unfortunately mistreated, he rose to power in a humble and upright way, and he forgave those, like his brothers, and, brought them back into his life. We need to show love, mercy, grace, and forgiveness living upright and holy lives doing what is right! Don't fall into the sin and be a slave for Satan to hate, cancel culture, and negativity, it is all about love, do you want your bones when you die to have the power to heal like Elisha or Jesus? We all need to ask ourselves this, what will be your legacy, will you be that good person to influence life after you have left this Earth School journey?
