Naaman the Syrian

This is the story of Naaman, a military commander in the Syrian army. He would be unknown to us but for the grace of Israel’s God reaching out to him. Why God touched this man and drew him to Himself is a mystery.

2 Kings 15:1-19 reveals the missionary heart of God for the nations. It shows us how God pursues those he loves and orchestrates circumstances to bring them to Himself. Naaman did not seek Israel’s God but God sought Him and won his heart and devotion.

Naaman’s conversion reminds us that God can break the proudest heart. It shows us that God makes himself known even to those who are not seeking Him.

I trust this study will not only introduce you to Naaman but bring encouragement to those whose loved ones have wandered from the path of salvation.
