First of all the axhead was borrowed and it also was an expensive tool.So he would have felt very distreede over the matter knowing that it was his responsibilty to return the item.Elisha the prophet a man of God knew that prayer and the action the Lord would have given him therefore knew how to act upon the situation.A miracle came forth.So when one has faith and steps out in that faith they know that they are assured the promise of a Miracle.
