Title: God's A/S (2 Kings 5:1-14)
Contents
A company manages customers for consumers who purchase and use its products. The most important thing in customer management is recall and after-sales service. A company with good recall and good after-sales service can turn a customer into a permanent customer. Only such companies can have a competitive edge in the global market. You can survive. Because consumers absolutely prefer the products of such companies. Gone are the days of only stimulating patriotism, expecting only patriotism, and appealing only to patriotism. Since we are Korean, let's use Korean products. It is not possible to increase the preference or consumption of local people's products only with the image of a local company. Because it is a Honam company, let the people of Honam live. This appeal to local selfishness cannot move consumers. It belongs to Christian entrepreneurs, so let us Christians buy it. It belongs to our alumni, so let's use it. The consciousness of Korean consumers has become globalized to move consumers' hearts with these things.
Products have no borders or races. The spearhead of globalization is commodities. In this era of limitless and murderous competition, after-sales service is becoming a very important key for a company to survive.
1. Necessity of after-sales service
All materials wear out and are prone to breakdown if used too much. The properties of matter are. So it needs to be repaired. By receiving the most appropriate after-sales service, you can extend the need and increase efficiency.
So is life. Life gets sick, worn out, and broken. Life also needs after-sales service. The body of life is a very fragile vessel. In particular, women were said to be weaker vessels. Therefore, thorough after-sales service is required. Where would the body be? Our minds are also prone to breakage due to anger, tension, worry, anxiety, and worry. If you don't get after-sales service at the right time, you could end up being useless forever.
The same is true of spiritual things. So is belief. The same is true of the gifted life. So is a life of dedication. I am tired and sick. Spirits can also be weakened. Faith can also be weakened and exhausted. Sometimes, as if in a deep swamp, he loses his strength and declines. Therefore, spiritual recovery, spiritual healing, and spiritual after-sales service are necessary.
God is our Creator. Please believe that the highest quality after-sales service in our lives comes from God. The least expensive and most reliable after-sales service is from God.
I hope you believe that God is the designer of your life and the creator of your life. And I hope you believe that the after service that God, who is the designer and maker, does is the most perfect.
2. General Naaman who received after-service
In today's text, Naaman, the commander of the Syrian army, was suffering from leprosy. Naaman, who was afflicted with illness, went to Israel and heard the word of a maidservant from Israel that he would be healed by the prophet's laying on of hands. The king of Aram gave Naaman various gifts, including silver, gold, and clothes, and even sent a letter to the king of Israel. The king of Israel, who met Naaman, the commander of the Syrian army, saw the letter from the king of Syria and said, 'Isn't this an argument to attack us?' I thought, ripped my clothes, and worried. When Elisha heard the news, he told him to send Naaman. General Naaman went to Elisha with his servants.
General Naaman thought that an Israelite prophet would come out and meet him, but Elisha could not be seen and his servant came out and told him to go to the Jordan River and bathe seven times. General Naaman was angry and wanted to go back. At that time, one of Naaman's servants begged and his pride did not allow him, but Naaman went to the Jordan River and submerged himself 7 times with an obedient heart, and he was healed as clean as a child's skin. It was fixed by God.
3. To receive after service from God, you must change to God-centered thinking.
Naaman's self-centered thinking, such as anger and unbelief, almost killed him, but in the end, in obedience to the command of Elijah, the man of God, he experienced a miracle in which his body was cleansed like that of a child will be
We find here that the shift from humanistic and self-centered values to God-centered thinking and faith is the key to solving the problem.
As Naaman sees in verse 11 and below, at first he said, "I thought that he might come to me and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, and wave his hand over the place to heal him of leprosy. The Damascus River Amana and Barbar are above all the rivers of Israel.
Won't it be healed, if I wash my body there, will I not be clean?" He turned around and tried to leave in anger. However, at the persuasion of his servants, he turned and immersed himself in the Jordan River seven times according to the word of the man of God, and his flesh was still there. He became as clean as a child's flesh.
Once, a man was driving a car from a Ford Company, driving down a road in the desert, and was sweating and repairing the car at a stop. This man was still an engineer who knew more than common sense about cars. But no matter how much I look at it, it doesn't fix it.
However, a car stopped next to the broken down car and a gentleman got out of the car. And then he asked about his own species. So when I explained, "Shall I fix it?" was to do. However, this engineer, who was a former engineer, was not trustworthy of the gentleman. And the children's hearts were broken. "What do you think people like you know about cars? Just pass by. I've repaired these cars countless times." Then he kept looking at the car, but it didn't fix it. So I had to entrust it to the gentleman once, and the gentleman said that he was able to hit a few places with a hammer without difficulty.
When I started the car while being dubious, wouldn't it roar and come back to life? So, contrary to the previous attitude, with respect, I asked, "How did you fix it so easily?" The gentleman replied, "I'm Ford, the car king who designed and built this Ford car." that it did. Ford Motor Company is clearly what Ford, its designer and maker, will do best.
God is our Creator. Rather than providing after-sales service to anyone else, what God is doing is the most certain and safe after-sales service. Therefore, we must pray to God. You have to ask God and ask God. Because God is the most sure after-service man.
Since God, who created all things from nothing, made human beings the lord of all things, we must believe that our God's after-sales service for the best creation is thorough and perfect.
For this work, I pray in the name of the Lord that you may become all the saints who experience the helping hand by asking Almighty God for help.
