Session at a Glance
Jehovah RopheFocus Passage: 2 Kings 5:1-19
Key Bible Verse: Psalm 30:2
Life ApplicationI can know that healing comes from God.
Level of Biblical Learning (God)God has concern and care for all people.
Flu, broken bone, cancer—have you ever heard any of these words? How do these words make you feel? How do you think a person with the sickness feels? Consider Naaman's (NAY muhn) reaction to his sickness.• Read 2 Kings 5:1-6. Naaman had a skin disease
that could cost him his life. Desperate for healing, he followed the advice of a young servant girl. What kinds of desperate situations have you faced? Whose advice did you seek?
• Read verses 7-10. Naaman put his faith in the alleged healing power of a man named Elisha (ih LIGH shuh). In fact, Naaman thought Elisha would come out, call on God's name, wave his hand over the spots, and cure the skin disease. However, Naaman was mistaken in more ways than one. Elisha could not heal him—only God has the power to heal. Elisha, a messenger to people for God, followed God's plan, not people's demands. Elisha had no concern for Naaman's status or wealth. How does this story impact you? Are you following God's plan or trying to meet other people's demands?
• Read verses 11-15. Naaman needed humility. Elisha sent a messenger to him instead of appearing in person. Elisha's action insulted Naaman and the "prescription" angered him even more. When you look back at your life, how has pride and rebellion kept you from receiving God's promises?
• Naaman's pride almost prevented him from being healed, but God sent his servants to intervene. Give thanks to God for family, friends, coworkers, and others who intervene or encourage you to follow God's plans.
• Reread verse 15. Naaman proclaimed there is no other God in the whole world. How do you declare your trust in Jehovah Rophe? How do you help children trust in God for healing?

God Healed NaamanBased on 2 Kings 5:1-19
Reader 1: Naaman (NAY muhn), commander of the king of Aram's (A ruhm) army, was a great man. He was highly regarded because through him, God had given many victories to Aram. However, Naaman had a problem. He had a terrible skin disease.
Reader 2: On one of his battles with Israel, Aram brought a young girl back with him. The girl became Naaman's wife's servant.
Reader 3: The girl told Naaman's wife, "If only Naaman would go to the prophet in Samaria, he could be cured of his skin disease."
Reader 4: Naaman told Aram what his wife told him. The king told Naaman to go to Samaria. Aram even sent a letter to the king of Israel.
Reader 2: Naaman went to Samaria. He took 750 pounds of silver, 150 pounds of gold, and 10 changes of clothes.
Reader 5: Naaman took the letter from Aram to the king of Israel.
Reader 1: Naaman read, "I, the king of Aram, am sending this letter to you. I sent my servant Naaman for you to cure him of his terrible skin disease."
Reader 6: After hearing the letter, the king of Israel tore his clothes. He asked, "Am I God, that King Aram expects me to cure this man of a disease?" He thought Aram was trying to start a fight with him.
Reader 3: When the prophet Elisha heard about the king's reaction, he sent a message to the king. Elisha told the king to have Naaman come to him.
Reader 5: Elisha wanted Naaman to know there was a prophet in Israel.
Reader 4: Naaman went to meet with Elisha at Elisha's house.
Reader 6: Through a messenger, Elisha told Naaman to go wash seven times in the Jordan and he would be healed.
Reader 1: Naaman became angry.
Reader 3: He left saying, "I thought he would come out, call on the name of God, wave his hand over my skin, and cure me."
Reader 2: He continued, "The Abana (AB uh nuh) and Pharpar (FAHR pahr) rivers of Damascus are better than all the waters in Israel. Why could I not wash in them and be cleaned?"
Reader 1: One of his servants said to him, "If the prophet, Elisha, had told you to do something great, you would have done it. But, he told you to do something simple."
Reader 5: When Naaman went down and dipped himself in the Jordan River seven times, his skin became clean.
Reader 4: Naaman and all the people traveling with him went back to Elisha.
Reader 2: Naaman declared, "I know there is no God in the whole world but the God in Israel."

God Healed NaamanBased on 2 Kings 5:1-19
Reader 1: Naaman (NAY muhn), commander of the king of Aram’s (A ruhm) army, was a great man. He was highly regarded because through him, God had given many victories to Aram. However, Naaman had a problem. He had a terrible skin disease.
Reader 2: On one of his battles with Israel, Aram brought a young girl back with him. The girl became Naaman’s wife’s servant.
Reader 3: The girl told Naaman’s wife, “If only Naaman would go to the prophet in Samaria, he could be cured of his skin disease.”
Reader 4: Naaman told Aram what his wife told him. The king told Naaman to go to Samaria. Aram even sent a letter to the king of Israel.
Reader 2: Naaman went to Samaria. He took 750 pounds of silver, 150 pounds of gold, and 10 changes of clothes.
Reader 5: Naaman took the letter from Aram to the king of Israel.
Reader 1: Naaman read, “I, the king of Aram, am sending this letter to you. I sent my servant Naaman for you to cure him of his terrible skin disease.”
Reader 6: After hearing the letter, the king of Israel tore his clothes. He asked, “Am I God, that King Aram expects me to cure this man of a disease?” He thought Aram was trying to start a fight with him.
Reader 3: When the prophet Elisha heard about the king’s reaction, he sent a message to the king. Elisha told the king to have Naaman come to him.
Reader 5: Elisha wanted Naaman to know there was a prophet in Israel.
Reader 4: Naaman went to meet with Elisha at Elisha’s house.
Reader 6: Through a messenger, Elisha told Naaman to go wash seven times in the Jordan and he would be healed.
Reader 1: Naaman became angry.
Reader 3: He left saying, “I thought he would come out, call on the name of God, wave his hand over my skin, and cure me.”
Reader 2: He continued, “The Abana (AB uh nuh) and Pharpar (FAHR pahr) rivers of Damascus are better than all the waters in Israel. Why could I not wash in them and be cleaned?”
Reader 1: One of his servants said to him, “If the prophet, Elisha, had told you to do something great, you would have done it. But, he told you to do something simple.”
Reader 5: When Naaman went down and dipped himself in the Jordan River seven times, his skin became clean.
Reader 4: Naaman and all the people traveling with him went back to Elisha.
Reader 2: Naaman declared, “I know there is no God in the whole world but the God in Israel.”

Bandages I am what your parents may put over a “boo-boo.” I come in many different colors and sizes. Before you put me on you should clean the area that needs covering.
Needle When I’m used you may say “Ouch.” You must be careful around me, only people trained to use me should do so. Doctors and nurses use me to give you a shot.
Rubber Gloves I help keep germs from spreading from one person to another. You can inflate me to look like a balloon. Doctors and nurses wear me on their hands to protect themselves from germs.
Pressure cup I’m used to measure your blood pressure. Doctors put me on your arm, inflate, and measure your heart beating.
Tongue depressors Stick out your tongue and say “Aah.” Doctors use me to move your tongue around so they can see your throat. Some people use me for crafts.
Thermometer A lot of people place me under their tongue. I can tell if you are too hot or too cold.
Stethoscope Doctors place me on your chest to listen to your heart and breathing. Doctors place the end of me in their ears so they can hear.
Medicine Some people do not like to swallow me because I may taste bad. I help you get better. Doctors tell you to take me to get better.
Prescription Doctors must give you a note to get me, I can also be what the note is called. Your parents usually take your doctor’s note to the drug store to get me. You should follow all the directions on the bottle when using me.
