Elijah confronts the king of Israel and gives him a message from God, "is there no God in Israel?". A question I feel God is still asking us today. Chapter two Elisha receives a double portion of Elijah's anointing but only after proving he was worthy by being tenacious and focus. Lesson here, great reward comes with focus and hardwork. Finally in chapter three, the new king of Israel, Joram was able to win against a difficult Moab because he formed an alliance with Jehoshaphat. Alliances in themselves are not bad, it is who they are entered into with that could become a problem.
