"It Shall Be Well" by Kirk Hunt

And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him [Elijah] to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well. (2 Kings 4:23 KJV) Please Read 2 Kings 4: 18-37

“It shall be well.” The Shunammite heard her little boy's breathing rattle to a stop. She felt the living warmth fade from his body. She laid his body down to take the only action she knew could help.

“It shall be well.” Her grim determination testified to her understanding of her situation. She wanted a different outcome. Her every word and action demonstrated her unrelenting hope.

“It shall be well.” Her heart and mind likely swam in grief. Her faith carried her over those all-too-human reactions and feelings. As she drove hard over the miles, faith kept her in her saddle.

“It shall be well.” Whatever you are facing. No matter how it looks to the natural eye. Regardless of expert opinion.

“It shall be well.” Speak the words, long before you can see the outcome. Testify to your coming success, despite your present setbacks. Use your faith to warm the cold reality of your situation.

“It shall be well.” These words don't prevent hot tears. They are a prelude to hard work. Despite all of that, they are still warm comfort and unyielding hope. If, you speak them with real faith™.

“It shall be well.” God is there, with you. He sees your entire situation. He cares. Do you have the faith to speak the words?

Think: Faith stands and acts, despite the circumstances.

Pray: “Lord, I declare, in Your Name, 'It shall be well.'”
