OCBsermon: Step Out (2 Kings 7:1 NKJV)

"Then Elisha said, "Hear the word of the LORD. Thus says the LORD: 'Tomorrow about this time a seah of fine flour shall be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, at the gate of Samaria."
The above scripture was a word of the Lord for a nation at a time of food scarcity. It was a prophetic word that promised such an abundant supply that beat every human imagination. It was so difficult for the minds of the people that heard this word of the Lord to agree with it. Their present affliction made it impossible for them to picture excellence.
Before you can experience the supernatural power of God that births miracles, you must be willing to step out in boldness. The heroes of this particular story were four lepers. How did they become heroes? They stepped out.The promise of supernatural abundance was hanging over this people. God had gone ahead of them to clear their path. However, someone still needed to step out without fear before the performance of the Word. Do you see promises in the Word that apply to your life? Dare to step out just like these lepers did. Your miracle is waiting for you. Step out and claim what is yours.
