*11/10/2026* *SECOND SUNDAY SERVICE* TOPIC: *WHAT DOES GOD DO?* CONTINUING PROVISION AND PRESENCE  - God will sometimes overrule the natural order by the miraculous  True Miracles  Elisha 2 Kings 2-6; 13:14-21 Naaman healed of leprosy VI 2 Kings 5:1-27 But Elisha would not accept any gifts (2 Kings 5:16). The mark of a true man of God is that he is not out to make money or acquire possessions but seeks the welfare of others. Paul makes the same point when he reminds the Ephesus elders that he had not wanted to take anyone’s money or goods, but had supported himself according to Acts 20:33-35; 1 Corinthians 9:11-16; 2 Thessalonians 3:7-10; Philippians 4:15-19. He also tells Timothy that a church leader should not be someone who loves money (1 Timothy 3:3). *©️2026* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ™️* Instagram: *@ecumenicanchurch* WhatsApp/Telegram: *+2348052366039* Email: *johnifesanya@gmail.com* *www.johnifesanya.blogspot.com* *#ECN Ibadan #* Powered by *JDIS*

*07/10/2026* *MID WEEK SERVICE* TOPIC: *WHAT DOES GOD DO?* CONTINUING PROVISION AND PRESENCE  - God will sometimes overrule the natural order by the miraculous  True Miracles  Elisha 2 Kings 2-6; 13:14-21 Naaman healed of leprosy V 2 Kings 5:1-27 Fortunately, Naaman was humble enough to swallow his anger, accept the advice of his servants and obey the word of God. He did exactly as the man of God had said, and he was healed (2 Kings 5:13-14). Where Naaman had once thought that the God of Israel was only one among many territorial gods, now he could say, there is no God in all the world except in Israel (2 Kings 5:15). He now believed the God of Israel to be the true God. He returned to Elisha’s house, and this time he and the prophet face to face. Full of gratitude, he offered rich gifts. *©️2026* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ™️* Instagram: *@ecumenicanchurch* WhatsApp/Telegram: *+2348052366039* Email: *johnifesanya@gmail.com* *www.johnifesanya.blogspot.com* *#ECN Ibadan #*...

*04/10/2026* *THANKSGIVING SERVICE* TOPIC: *WHAT DOES GOD DO?* CONTINUING PROVISION AND PRESENCE  - God will sometimes overrule the natural order by the miraculous  True Miracles  Elisha 2 Kings 2-6; 13:14-21 Naaman healed of leprosy IV 2 Kings 5:1-27 When Naaman arrived at Elisha’s house, the prophet did not even bother to go out to address him in person. He simply sent out a messenger telling Naaman to go to the Jordan River and wash himself seven times (2 Kings 5:9-10). Naaman was an important man and was used to being treated with great respect, so he was angry about receiving so little care and attention. After all, he reasoned, if all that was needed to heal him was river water, he could bathe in the bigger rivers in Damascus (2 Kings 5:11-12). We,too, often want to design God’s salvation to suit us. The message of the gospel of salvation often sounds like foolishness to those who are perishing. But what was needed was not earthly wisdom but faith and obedience to t...

*30/09/2026* *MID WEEK SERVICE* TOPIC: *WHAT DOES GOD DO?* CONTINUING PROVISION AND PRESENCE  - God will sometimes overrule the natural order by the miraculous  True Miracles  Elisha  2 Kings 2-6; 13:14-21 Naaman healed of leprosy III 2 Kings 5:1-27 The king of Israel had no idea what to do when he received this letter. He was sure that the king of Aram was looking for an excuse to start a war. In desperation, he tore his clothes (2 kings 5:7). Unlike the slave girl, he either didn’t know or didn’t believe that the prophet of the Lord could cure leprosy. As soon as Elisha heard of the king’s predicament, he sent word that Naaman should come to him so that he will know that there is a prophet in Israel (2 kings 5:8). Elisha was not calling attention to himself but was concerned that people of other nations would come to know that the God of Israel was the only true God. *©️2026* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ™️* Instagram: *@ecumenicanchurch* WhatsApp/Telegram: *+2348052...

He took princely gifts with him - 750 pounds (340 kilograms) of silver, 150 pounds (70 kilograms) of gold, and ten sets of clothing - as well as a letter addressed to the King of Israel. 2 Kings 5:4-6 *©️2026* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ™️* Instagram: *@ecumenicanchurch* WhatsApp/Telegram: *+2348052366039* Email: *johnifesanya@gmail.com* *www.johnifesanya.blogspot.com* *#ECN Ibadan #* Powered by *JDIS*

But there was one victory he could not win - he suffered from an incurable skin disease (2 Kings 5:1b). This disease is described as leprosy - but this word was used for many serious skin diseases and may not have been what we today know as leprosy. *©️2026* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ™️* Instagram: *@ecumenicanchurch* WhatsApp/Telegram: *+2348052366039* Email: *johnifesanya@gmail.com* *www.johnifesanya.blogspot.com* *#ECN Ibadan #* Powered by *JDIS*
