We often read II Kings 8:1-6 and rejoice with the Shunammite woman who was granted an officer of the king to restore all that was hers . . . but sometimes we overlook that the first verse says . .. Then Elisha spoke to the woman whose son he had RESTORED TO LIFE . . . Lord, today we receive the restoration of our sons and daughters (and son-in-laws and daughter-in-laws and grandsons and granddaughters and spouses) back to life: spiritual life, financial life, relational life, marriage life, physical life, healing life, emotional life, peace life, provision life, purpose life – AMEN!
