    God wants to empower your life with the Holy Spirit. Elijah and Elisha illustrate how this can happen for you.

    The life of Elijah has been a whirlwind of activity!

    What Elisha’s succession to Elijah’s office can tell us about the transfer of power: God’s use of imperfect people, the need for loyalty, ambition, and decisiveness.

    This sermon is to those of us who know God is doing something new, and they want to make the transition with God.

    For Elisha to have the ’double-portion’ he desired there was a clear path to follow. There was a preparation to be made, a pryaer to be offered, a promise to be claimed, and the possession of the answer. What a challenge for us today!

    ELISHA SEEKS THE BLESSING THE PATH TO THE DOUBLE-PORTION II Kings 2:1-15 Elisha had travelled with Elijah for a relatively short time, and had seen how the Lord had miraculously worked through Elijah. This must have inspired him to want the same anointing himself, but before Elisha could ...read more
