Now, Elijah knew that everything he touched was blessed. But now, if he could get the woman to believe it. I think that’s where Paul got his handkerchiefs. See? He knowed God was in Him. And Elijah knew what he blessed, what he put his hands on was blessed. That’s why we have the order of laying hands on the sick, what you touch is blessed. That’s the reason from Paul’s body they taken handkerchiefs and aprons. That’s the reason the shadow of Peter passed over the public, and they recognized It. Let’s get that Shunammite woman just a little further. I love that case. Look. But she didn’t have no faith in the—in the—in the stick. She said, “As the Lord lives, and your souls lives, I’ll not leave you.” Determined, I like that. Don’t you? She said, “I’m going to stay right with you.”
