Prayerful Protest

In the Bible there are incredible stories of young people choosing to trust God. In return, God used them to do extraordinary things. As you read about these young people, be inspired because Jesus is calling you to make a difference too.

Naaman’s Slave Girl

2 Kings 5:1–1

What Happened?

Naaman, a successful commander in the Syrian army, had leprosy (a very bad skin condition). His wife had a slave – a young Jewish girl who had been captured. The girl told her mistress that Naaman would be healed if he went to see a Jewish prophet. Naaman listened, was healed, and promised to only worship God.

What Can We Learn?

In spite of her situation, the young girl chose to be kind and caring, instead of being angry and mean. She trusted God and took the opportunity to share her faith. In the end, her actions meant that Naaman was healed and became part of God’s family too.

Thoughts for You

How can you be like the young girl? Is there someone you know who’s not always nice? Can Jesus help them to change? Read Matthew 5:44 and pray that God will help them.
