2 Kings 5:11 Naaman was a decorated war hero and a man greatly admired and respected in his own nation. He was personal friends with the king and was considered what we call today, “somebody.” But he was a leper. Regardless of how much honor and respect a man has among other men and women, he is nothing but a leper in the eyes of God. God’s servants have been made to see God in His sovereign majesty, so they too, are not impressed, since ALL MANKIND are the same, nothing but sinners with spiritual leprosy. In God’s purpose, Naaman was led to the door of Elisha, God’s prophet. Elisha sent his servant to meet this “world renowned man” with instructions that would cleanse him from his leprosy. Naaman was offended and angered and left saying, “I thought this prophet would have come out to see me, being the great and famous man that I am.” He expected a big ceremony for himself; the prophet calling on his God, waving his hand over him. Surely he had never helped so a great a man as he was. Perhaps some of you that have been providentially brought to hear the gospel have said in your heart, those two words, I thought! Maybe you have said, I thought God loved everybody, or I thought it was up to me to be saved. Perhaps you have said, I thought I had to do something or I thought I had to walk an aisle or say a sinner’s prayer. BUT your thinking is all wrong, just as Naaman’s! But dear sinner you must hear the instructions of God by the servant of God in preaching. Be washed in the blood of the Lamb. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved. Naaman’s servants came and asked him, “If the prophet had given you some great thing to do, would you have done it?” How much better it is then to wash and be clean? Men by nature want to do some great work to be saved. But the great work has already been done, by the Lord Jesus Christ. The believer simply hears, trusts and obeys God’s Word by the grace of God!
