The story of Namaan from 2 Kings 5, offers an illustration of the loving grace of the Almighty on a general of a pagan nation. Because God is sovereign, no matter how many turns Naaman’s journey took, ultimately he reached the destination of Healing. His thirst to be healed of the dreaded disease led him eventually to not just physical healing but spiritual healing, because as his skin was restored, so was his knowledge of the true God. This story offers several lessons for both a person who is in need of healing as well as for a prayer minister.
