Why does God lead you in situations when we do, Dr. Tony Evans says that's the time we see the Lord's power were not sure what celebrating. This is the alternative Dr. Tony Evans, author, speaker, senior pastor of Oakland Bible Fellowship in Dallas Texas and president of the alternative words like impossible or incurable. Don't apply when God is equation. Dr. Evans is seeing miracles happen is in some ways up to us.

Let's join him as he takes us to second Kings chapter 5 the story of an important man in a desperate situation so all that was so right. There was no cure. It was interim simultaneously called the castaway. Most importantly, I to something going wrong spiritually with everything right has one wrong messing up all that is right and what is your one thing in your life that is messing up all the good stuff going for you, you successful in your career with your finances… Your educational achievements. Maybe you can resume that is impressive, but that one that you did not put on. That was Raymond's realities that was his scenario. He had that phrase, but he was a leper flip. Note: his life, affecting everything you told in verse two battles it To the little slave girl you told me was wife get yo husband, my balls down to Israel to the prophet Elisha could change his leprosy situation.

She was a little girl.

She was a nobody in terms of our position in life and her agent like Bush action that could change this world and this man's life does the little girl told my wife told me that my problems in Israel so much. This other verse five says go now to send a letter to the king of Israel with him 10 talents of silver and 6000 shekels of gold pinching the close to the king of Israel, and he says I sent David my servant verse 60 you. You may cure him of his leprosy with the little girl said little girls that it Israel to cure his leprosy. Verse nine Saul Lehman came with his chariots and stood at the house of Elisha Elisha sent a messenger saying go in the Jordan seven times in your flesh will be restored to you and you will be coming Houston we have a problem with. We have some issues going on here. This was explained to us in verse 11 but was kicked off mad and went away and said all coming back to me and called the name of the Lord his God and focus all over the place.

Leprosy went away and arrange that are not happen and the rivers of the mask is better than the one real washing between the way is called leading to his call flowing your human opinion God. It's called pride joins 230 is a bad idea to stay outside. Just because dirty animals are going when nasty animals. Too bad, too, I'm going that will be speaking there on the refuse.

And now I'm going to not okay servant comes to sense verse 13. My father probably told you to do some great thing to another meeting this connection would you not have done it much more than when he says go wash in between to give you some hard to grab it on give you some easy and there you go. Fossen Carson didn't mad the property get mad at the church negligent mad because they didn't tell you what you wanted to keep is not the question. The question is was what they told you God's Word and God's will. That's the only question so verse 14 he went down and dipped himself seven terms in the Jordan. What's this, according to the word of the man of God and his flesh was restored like a flash of a little child and he was clean. Don't let your dignity keep you from solving your problem will not bring full deliverance. In fact, it may bring. Because he was not until after that seven time to complete what God was asking a lot of times people get mad. I did what God said when you dig down deep enough they did a part of what they obey not to feel better about what they did not go all the way and complete what he asked them to do on tell, you cannot expect on supernatural incursion into your circumstances, corrected to whatever level the sovereign will of God will allow for you and I must stop arguing with God's word is final. It is settled in and sometimes you will like it and sometimes you will understand that if you read your doctor's prescription. Not a real doctor. But even though you can't read it, even though you don't understand you go to the pharmacist you fulfill it and you take the one David Allen says I'll never do anything you stay sick.

Understand nonprescription's prescription and he knows what you really will want to tell you take the medicine I take prescription to the sermon know you must take medicine that is radiance to see the natural into the natural to ensure that which appears to be actually functions as that which is insurable in your life.

What is going leprosy. I want to tell you now related to whatever deliverance God give you for that thing that will not go away until you.I.we adopt radical obedience. Obedience to the in the point of rejecting our own perspective or that of our friends do not see God talk about this when Jones doing worship and what you will see the seat of power that the Bible talks about this victory that the Bible talks about God's got to see faith in faith is demonstrated by the wall. By the thing you do nothing you think you'll say when a person gets stuck in quicksand. They go to what is natural when you none of us probably been a quicksand purchasing movies with people in quicksand and they go to what's natural what's natural is to flail your arms to try to get yourself out of this thing that's the reason quicksand sucks you well is that it is saying and mix with water. When sin gets mixed with water it removes the friction of Sam being on saying so since man is no longer on Sam Nelson Mitchell, one of the friction of sleeping with Sam is no longer there. So the more you try to get out of it the more it's something you wonder how to get out of it is something you wonder because you don't have anything with enough friction to push you against it when you push against it.

The water is just what the sand is just drawing down but you're doing what natural if you get caught in quicksand. You have to do what is unnatural you have to go against your natural inclination to fight to get out and you must relax which slows down the process of being pulled down, which gives you time to Fight and when you rest in town which is against your natural inclination.

You find out. Deliverance is possible you go to what you naturally think is right and you are aiding and abetting her to buy six that's how it is with God. Sometimes God wants to do something you have to go against your natural inclination is natural to your mind, you will desire to go because you want to be delivered.
