Rivers can represent a test to us. For Elisha, crossing the River Jordan without Elijah was a test whether the Lord's promise to him would be realised or not. Firstly Elisha had to face the challenge of now being alone after Elijah was taken up into glory. We cannot live on the faith of or parents or our Pastors or our Sunday School teachers. Elisha now has to know for himself whether the Lord is with him or not. It is important to know this for ourselves. Do we care whether the Lord is with us or not? Do we approach things without praying the Lord would be with us?
There are lots of tests that we encounter. Pastors are tested as to whether the Lord is with them when they do not see much fruit in their ministries. Secular employments have their own tests to us where we need to prove the Lord's presence with us. Sickness or a new job are tests. God shows He is with us by answering prayers, through providence, through the Bible and through the wise counsels of mature believers.
