We have this thing of stopping before we should... King Jehoash was instructed by the man of God, Elisha, to strike the ground. He decided to strike it only three times & the man of God was angry with him for stopping at three. He said to the king "You will only have victory three times" and that will not give you complete victory over Aram. Because you should have struck the ground five or six times. The question is, why did he stop at 3? 2 KINGS 13:18-19
