Today’s Bible Verse: “Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” — 2 Kings 6:16

2 Kings 6:16 takes place in a moment of fear and pressure. Elisha’s servant wakes to find their city surrounded by an enemy army and immediately assumes defeat is inevitable. But Elisha sees a greater reality—God’s protection was already surrounding them, even if it wasn’t visible to the human eye.
