Elisha answered, “Go and say to him, ‘You will certainly recover’; but the LORD has revealed to me that he will in fact die.” He stared at him with a fixed gaze until Hazael felt ashamed. Then the man of God began to weep. 2 Kings 8:10-11
This is an interesting passage. Elisha knows what’s about to happen to the king of Aram. Elisha weeps because he knows that this messenger will be the one to harm Israel. And everything Elisha said came true.
What makes you weep? Does the sin you see all around make you weep? Does your sin make you weep? Does untold death and destruction and famine and bloodshed throughout the world grieve you? What about what you see on television, does it make you weep? Does anything make you weep?
