*OUR DAILY BREAD 🍞 MINISTRIES NIGERIA🇳🇬* *FEBRUARY 2️⃣7️⃣, 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣6️⃣* *Prayer Walk* Bible in a Year : *Numbers 17-19* *Mark 6:30-56* *_Elisha turned away and walked back and forth in the room. 2 Kings 4:35_* Today's Scripture & Insight : *2 Kings 4:31-35* I was stuck. I’d written half of a devotional article when my thoughts dried up. “God, what should I do?” I prayed. Remembering research that found that our creative output is boosted by an average of 60 percent when we walk, I headed out to the trail behind my house and continued my conversation with God. Thirty minutes later I was refreshed. I returned to my keyboard and finished the entry. In 2 Kings 4:18-35, we read that Elisha and his servant, Gehazi, responded to a Shunammite woman’s plea to help her dead son. At Elisha’s instruction (v. 29), Gehazi laid his staff on the child (v. 31). Elisha prayed. Then he laid on top of the boy. At last, “Elisha . . . walked back and forth in the room and then got on the bed and stretched out on him once more. The boy . . . opened his eyes” (v. 35). Scripture doesn’t tell us why Elisha “walked back and forth,” nor does it say what he was thinking. What we do know is that when Elisha’s prayers weren’t answered, he didn’t give up. It’s not difficult to picture him talking to God in this urgent situation. What do you do when you’re stuck at a dead end and don’t know what to do? Perhaps a “prayer walk” is in order. Whether we head out to a trail for a walk or pace back and forth in our home, connecting to God when we’re in need brings answers that address our circumstances. *By: Elisa Morgan* *Reflect & Pray* Where are you stuck? How might you communicate with God in this situation so that He can direct you? *_Dear God, when I find myself in stuck spots, please help me to walk with You._*
