Saturday July 24th    Science, Scriptures and the Supernatural 6   Yesterday we established the fact that a God-Man partnership is necessary to operate in the supernatural. When God was making man, He put the spirit of man in an earth molded body and with God’s breath man became a living being. In this process of creation, God was showing a principle that if He’s to manifest his glory on the Earth it must be a partnership with man. We see another example of this in the ministry of Elisha. 2 kings 6:5-7 (NLT) 5 But as one of them was cutting a tree, his ax head fell into the river. “Oh, sir!” he cried. “It was a borrowed ax!”6 “Where did it fall?” the man of God asked. When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it into the water at that spot. Then the ax head floated to the surface. 7 “Grab it,” Elisha said. And the man reached out and grabbed it.   An axe head has just sunk into the river. Elijah takes a stick which naturally should float, and throws it into the river at the spot that axe head sank. The stick sinks, and the axe head begins to float. This certainly is a miracle. But how did all these take place? Elisha did something in the natural before the Supernatural happened. First, he got a stick and threw it into the river; God did not do any of those things for him. When Elijah did what he could do, God did the supernatural act He couldn’t do by causing the stick to sink and the axe head to float. What Elisha did was a practical, repeatable action and it ushered in the supernatural.    In 2Kgs.3, Elisha was consulted by the king of Judah over a battle that he was about to fight, he went in the company of the idol worshipping king of Israel. When Elisha saw the king of Israel, he was angry and in that state of mind he could not access the supernatural and get direction. To access the supernatural wisdom, he asked for a musician to play some music. E
