    In this last sermon in our series, we witness Elijah's exciting exit and learn some things about how to face the end of our own lives.

    Introduction: A. You all know what a “grand finale” is, right? 1. The grand finale is the very exciting or impressive ending of a performance or a show. 2. Well, I guess someone in rural Arkansas didn’t know the meaning of the phrase. 3. Some of our relatives attended a 4th of ...read more

    Vision 2018: Reviving The Days Of Elijah

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 536 views

    What needs to be revived (facilitated) are MIRACLES, DOUBLE-ANOINTING and THE HARVEST. You and I have a major role to play.

    Opening illustration/video. Introduction: Abraham Heschel once wrote, “To be a prophet is both a distinction and an affliction.” Elijah was no exception. Few prophets in Scripture have provoked as many ministers, challenged as many evangelists and inspired as many prophets as Elijah. This man from ...read more

    Being A Faithful Servant

    Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Feb 8, 2024
     | 2,990 views

    It is not easy being a faithful follower of Jesus and oftentimes we are tempted to throw in the towel and call it quits. Elisha is a role model of what it means to stay committed and faithful to the very end.

    I hope you are excited to be in Church today to worship and hear the word of God. I don't know if it is the weather or something else but I have to say that once in a while, I get the impression that this is more of a routine than real worship that lacks enthusiasm. It reminds me of a certain ...read more

    In the Bible tearing clothes referred to Mouring, hurt, sorrow, that is what happened to Elisha when his friend departed but he picked up cloak and kept going despite the tearing of clothes.

    "Tearing Of Clothes” 2 Kings 2:1-12 1. In Second Kings, the prophet Elisha is torn apart by the departure of his mentor Elijah. • As the story begins, the two men are on the road outside Gilgal, near the Jordan River. • Elijah somehow knows that his prophetic work is coming to ...read more

    Elijah taken up in a whirlwind - not a chariot of fire as commonly taught

    2 Kings 2. 1-14 I am sure we all know a few lines of “Swing low sweet chariot, coming for to take me home…” An African-American spiritual. The date of composition is unknown.

    Elijah's Last Words Before He Left This Earth Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 31, 2024
     | 988 views

    Elijah received word from the LORD that it was time for him to go to Heaven. This message speaks of Elijah's last words before he took that journey to Heaven.

    Introduction: Elijah was one of only two humans to ever leave this earth without dying. The only other was Enoch, who “. . . walked with God: and he was not; for God took him (Genesis 5:24, KJV)”. Full disclosure, I believe in the pre-tribulation rapture position, meaning, that according to 1 ...read more

    The Double Portion

    Contributed by Perry James on Nov 22, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,587 views

    There is so much that we can draw from the lives of Elijah and Elisha. I think something that is echoed throughout is how we need to be ready to work for God as Christians. We reap what we sow, and I believe these 2 men lived that out.

    *(I do want to add at the beginning here, I did not read all of the scriptures that are in this, I just like to list my references in my notes so that I can better go over the story with the congregation. I also shortened some of the stories as needed.)* Hello, how is everyone? I have been ...read more

    Elijah told Elisha that was a HARD THING, a double portion of the anointing is a HARD THING. 2 Kgs 2:9. But then a Window was created for the actualisation of that request and that window is illustrated with the word "NEVERTHELESS".

    2 Kings? ?2:8-15? ?KJV. “And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
