2 Kings 6:10 - Additional Comments

The king of Israel at that time appears to be King Jehoram (2 Kings 3:6), who was not a follower of the true God, but false gods. Yet, he realized that Elisha spoke prophetically, so he took the advice of Elisha. Isn't it interesting that the king would not get right with God despite seeing the works of God through Elisha, and seeing nothing from the false gods?
Are you right with God? Are you ignoring what God has shown you? Are you waiting for something? God has already given you what you need to get right with Him.
