                           The Power of Prayer
                                              2 Kings 6.15-23


  Synopsis: When Elisha is surrounded by enemies, hge teaches us that the
  power of prayer is a weapon for victory. Through prayer our eyes are
  opened to God’s perspective; we find real solutions to our problems; and
  remember that we must be kind to our enemies.
