    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

    Elisha dared to ask for a double portion of Elijah’s spirit. Do we dare to ask for hard things or we just surrender and accept the little ones? Who can do that?

    1stBBC The man who asked for the hard thing 2Ki 2:1-10 And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.

    “Let’s Go All The Way” Text: II Kings 2:1-15 What motivated Elisha to request a double portion? Had he seen the power that Elijah had and determined it wasn’t enough? Was his motive carnal?

    Encourages the audience to go ALL THE WAY across Jordan - like Elisha, while all of the other prophets were content to view Elijah’s end from afar.
