    Elisha had proven himself faithful in being Elijah’s disciple. He was now ready for a new ministry, an expanded ministry, an anointed ministry.

    2 KINGS 2: 8-14 TAKING UP THE MANTLE [2 Kings 2:1-7] Elijah has been called the grandest character that Israel ever produced. [Robert Young, Analytical Concordance to the Bible, New York: Funk and Wagnalls, 1936, p 295.] But like all of us he needed a friend. Elisha had been Elijah’s servant, ...read more

    God is looking to move us forward, when we keep trying to go backwards.

    We find here an amazing part of history. It is the story of two things happening. One Elijah being taken up into glory on one of God’s fiery chariots, and secondly we see the transferences of power and authority from one generation to the next generation. Here God is unmistakably teaching a lesson ...read more

    Change or transition is hard, but we can face it bravely and powerfully with God's help. The transition in leadership from Elijah to Elisha reminds us to pay attention, to seek the Holy Spirit's filling, and to bravely take up the task given us.

    2 Kings 2:1-15 Transitioning Well Prophets with a Purpose – Week 5 Today we’re finishing up a five-week series looking at various Old Testament Prophets and what they have to say to us.

    Salt is not for itself; it is seasoning for food. In the same way the disciples are there not for themselves but for the earth

    During the children’s service, the pastor was explaining that Christians are the “light, salt, and leaven” of the world. The children understood “light” and “salt,” but when the pastor asked them what “leaven” is, they were silent. Finally, young Michelle Williamson spoke up: “It’s what comes after ...read more

    The prophet Elijah passed his mantle to Elisha. We are, as disciples, called to leave a legacy for those who come after us. What legacy are we leaving?

    What an amazing story we read as we conclude The Elijah Chronicles. We’ve followed our hero through great and challenging times and some even greater miracles. We’ve also reflected on a time that life got the best of him. Through it all, by God’s grace, Elijah was able to overcome ...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.

    Today, we delve into the remarkable story of the prophet Elijah and explore the spiritual lessons we can learn from his life. Through these powerful accounts, we discover seven key points that highlight how Elijah's journey can relate to our own spiritual walk.

    Bold Faith and Trust in God (1 Kings 17:1-6): Elijah's story begins with an incredible act of faith as he confidently declares a drought upon the land of Israel.

    Elijah was a mighty man of God. He stood like a stone wall against idolatry, and he was not afraid to speak truth to power or tell the people what they needed to hear.

    February 11, 2023 The bible tells us Elijah was from the town of Tishbe, but we don’t anything about his background or who his parents were. His name means, “Yahweh is my God,” and he certainly lived up to his name, standing in sharp contrast against the idolatry of the day. His primary ...read more

    As he followed Prophet Elijah, Elisha had every cause to be distracted. But he kept going. Elisha maintained an unbroken focus and he received the supernatural.

    THE POWER OF UNBROKEN FOCUS "9 And so it was, when they had crossed over, that Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask! What may I do for you, before I am taken away from you?” Elisha said, “Please let a double portion of your spirit be upon me.” 10 So he said, “You have asked a hard thing. ...read more

    But is a three letter word with great implications. A negative 'but' turns a sweet tale to a bitter one.
