The end of the means

The God who designs the end devises the means to the end.
Text: 2 Kings 5:1-15

God doth devise means... 2 Samuel 14:14

And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian. Luke 4:27

  • The Syrian captain’s anger, 5:11-12
  • The wise servants’ advice, 5:13
