2 Kings - Chapter 6

The prophet who has healed a man with leprosy; fed the hungry and cared for the poor is now under attack by those who want to kill him.  But Elisha knows that with God on his side the opposition is always outnumbered:

"And when the servant of the man of God arose early and went out, there was an army, surrounding the city with horses and chariots. And his servant said to him, “Alas, my master! What shall we do?” So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” And Elisha prayed, and said, “Lord, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha."

The same was true of Jesus - the prophet who also healed a man with leprosy; fed the hungry and cared for the poor.  He. too. was under attack by those who wanted to kill him.  And he also knew that his opposition was outnumber, and he would only be killed if he willingly allowed it.  In Matthew 26 we read of his arrest:

"Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus and arrested him. With that, one of Jesus’ companions reached for his sword, drew it out and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear. “Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him, “for all who draw the sword will die by the sword. Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels? But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen in this way?”"
