*TOPIC: FAITH OR FE**SH*

2 KINGS 2:19β22
*KEY VERSE:*
"That we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and

1 SAMUEL 4β8
*COMMENTARY*
Juliana was desperate for healing. One day, she stumbled upon a message on YouTube saying, "Put your name in salt water and pray with it, and God will heal you." She followed the instructions and prayed fervently day after day. But as the weeks passed, nothing happened, and her faith began to sink. She started asking, βDid I use the right kind of salt?" *Did I use enough?" Maybe I need to add oil or do it under moonlight." One day, her pastor visited and found her doing the ritual. He lovingly asked her: Are you trusting the symbol or the Saviour?" The question cut deep, and that was the turning point. It is possible to be carried away by every wind of doctrine.
As Christians, we must discern the spirit behind symbols. The miracle in 2 Kings 2:21 wasn't the salt; it was the Word of the Lord. Speak the Word to your situation.
In Acts 19:19, believers burned their scrolls because they recognized that God doesn't need human formulas to move. Let's return to the simplicity of faith.
God may use symbols, but He never lets the symbol replace the Saviour. Our breakthroughs are not in salt, oil, or paper, but in submission, obedience, and relationship. Child of God, you are the salt of the earth.
*CONTROLLING THOUGHTS*
Fe**sh is when the object is believed to contain power. Faith is when we know that power belongs to God alone.
*PRAYER*
LORD, help me not to trust in the symbol rather than the Saviour, in the Name of Jesus Christ Amen!
