How will God use me?

This powerful exploration of 2 Kings 5 challenges us to reconsider how God works through ordinary people in extraordinary ways. Rather than focusing solely on Naaman's miraculous healing from leprosy, we're invited to examine the unnamed slave girl whose simple faith changed everything. Here was a young woman, torn from her homeland, enslaved by the very people who likely killed her family, yet she chose to be a conduit of God's blessing rather than a vessel of bitterness. Her story confronts us with an uncomfortable truth: sometimes God uses us not to receive the miracle, but to bring the miracle to someone else. Are we willing to be faithful in difficult circumstances even when the breakthrough isn't for us? The message cuts deep into our tendency to let circumstances define our attitudes and our willingness to serve God. We're reminded that Joseph, Esther, and countless others were positioned in painful places precisely so God could work through them. The question isn't whether our situation is fair, but whether we'll allow God to use us anyway. When we're consumed by bitterness over what we've lost or what's been done to us, we forfeit the privilege of participating in someone else's deliverance. This isn't just ancient history—it's a present-day call to examine whether our pain has made us bitter or better, whether our trials have closed our hearts or opened them to be instruments of God's grace.
