Influence From The Bottom

One of the most powerful leaders in the Bible is a person we never even learn the name of. She’s a young Israeli girl taken captive, forced into slavery, and placed in the home of Naaman, a high-ranking Syrian commander with leprosy. And yet her quiet courage becomes the turning point that changes everything.We walk through 2 Kings 5 and trace how a single, bold sentence travels from a servant to a household, from a commander to a king, and finally to the prophet Elisha. Along the way, we talk about why Naaman almost misses his miracle: pride, expectations, and the offense of a simple instruction to wash in the Jordan River seven times. The story is a sharp reminder that God’s help often comes packaged in humility.If you care about Christian leadership, integrity, and real influence at work, at home, or anywhere in the chain of command, this short morning devotional will reset your mindset.Subscribe to Starting Right, share this with a friend who needs hope today, and leave a review so more people can find the show.
