    The stick did not make the iron float, the connection between Elisha and God made the iron float! There is no magical power in the stick but certainly there was spiritual power in Elisha .

    Made the iron float! 2 King 6:6”…..he (Prophet Elisha) cut off a stick and threw it in there and made the iron float.” The stick did not make the iron float, the connection between Elisha and God made the iron float! There is no magical power in the stick but certainly there ...read more

    The sin that weighs us down is like the weight of iron that made the axe sink. The power of the Cross is that "wooden stick" that helps us float again.

    When a man makes iron to float on water, people will say it is magic. God is not a magician. He is the God of miracles. Nothing is impossible with Him. He can make iron swim. His children too can.

    TEXT: 2 KINGS 6:5-6 (NIV) "As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron ax head fell into the water. 'Oh no, my lord!' he cried out. 'It was borrowed!' The man of God asked, 'Where did it fall?' When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, ...read more

    Iron, That Floats—even Swims.

    Again ax-heads don't float. Or do they? Maybe it’s time to pray a ridiculous prayer! The Bible say’s, “The iron did swim!” This ranks as one of my favorite miracles in the scripture for a couple reasons. First, this isn't a life or death situation. It's just a borrowed ax head.

    Iron, That Floats—Even Swims. 2 Kings 6:1-7NLT Whenever I counsel people who are wrestling with the will of God. I remind them of a simple truth: “God wants you to get where God wants you to go, more than you want to get where God wants you to go.” I’ll read it once more—it should relieve you from ...read more

    The account of Elisha, the student prophet and the floating axhead is one that would make intellectuals just shake their heads at someone who would believe such a thing. How big is your God? The God of the Bible is awesome even in small miracles!

    Getting back your cutting edge some times involves God taking you back to a place where you lost it, and doing a work of deep sorrow in our hearts. Just because you asked God forgive you doesn't mean you have properly dealt with your sin. Contrition.
