This lesson is so powerful to teach children that we don’t receive God’s love because we love Him, serve Him, or GIVE Him things. There is no exchange of works or gifts in order to receive God’s blessing – God just does, because that’s who He is.
This is Biblical truth friends. We don’t earn God’s goodness towards us, He gives it to use regardless of what we can give to Him.
When Prophet Elisha refused Captain Naaman’s gifts, he was showing Captain Naaman the character of God – that God is a giver and doesn’t expect any “thing” in return. But, it is hard not to respond in thanks and praise when we come to know the sacrifice He made for us.
