Description

In this week's episode from our "One Hit Wonders" series, we dive deep into the story of Gehazi, Elisha's servant who made a fateful decision that cost him everything. This powerful message explores how even those in close proximity to God's miraculous power can be drawn away by the allure of money and influence.

In This Episode:

• Why money remains one of the most challenging topics in church
• How Gehazi traded his permanent calling for temporary gain
• The danger of taking counsel only from yourself
• Why greed often disguises itself and takes advantage of generosity
• The sobering truth that nothing is hidden from God
• How to avoid trading what matters most for what you want most

Scripture Focus: 2 Kings 5:20-27

This message will challenge you to examine what might be pulling you away from God's best for your life. Whether it's the pursuit of wealth, power, or simply good things that aren't God's things for you, this teaching offers both conviction and hope.

Perfect for anyone struggling with:

• Financial temptations and stewardship
• Making compromises in their faith walk
• Understanding the difference between God's will and personal desires
• Seeking accountability in spiritual growth
