    Outline of 2 Kings 2:1-18 on Elijah being tranlated to heaven.

    THE RAPTURE OF ELIJAH – 2 KINGS 2:1-18 Many times we have the idea when a person reaches a certain age he is no longer useable. I spoke with a pastor that is about “retirement” age and he told me that I had better move before the age of 50, and after 55 no one wants you as pastor, then you are ...read more

    PASSION involves each of us giving to God. Jesus told us that is more blessed to give than to receive. Actually, all of ourselves. All of our love.

    PASSION of ELIJAH Text: Ephesians 5:16 thru 18 We serve a great and mighty God. He has given us so much. And yet, we seem to have so little to give Him in return. I have been impressed over the years that He wants us to give Him more of ourselves while (at the same time) learn to give to one ...read more

    If God could use such a man then He should be able to use men the same way today.

    What a great man of God Elijah was. Here is a man that God used mightily. Here is a man of the OT who had great miracles manifested through him.

    Elijah's Depression

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Aug 11, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,827 views

    Beginning with a monologue that takes some poetic license as Elijah passes the mantle to Elisha, this teaching gives tips from a Biblical model on dealing with depression.

    [This sermon began with a monologue. It presumed that Elijah needed to fill Elisha in on what had gone before. With dramatic license, it recounts what is in the Bible’s account, even though the Bible doesn’t specify that Elijah actually filled Elisha in or needed to fill Elisha in on Elijah’s ...read more

    James in teaching a lot on the subject of prayer, now brings up the great example of Elijah and some of his prayers and from which Christians are exhorted to pray with the fervency that Elijah prayed.

    Elijah comes as God's representative to call his people back to God. He is a type of Christ

    By Rev Bill Stewart In the church we often use outdated language or terms that are not generally used by other people. We sometimes talk about God as "sovereign" and often speak about the "sovereignty of God." My dictionary (The Collins Dictionary and Thesaurus) defines a "sovereign" as "a person ...read more

     | 7,768 views

    Having defeated the prophets of Baal Elijah is exhausted and afraid but God strengthens him and sends him off to appoint Elisha to take over from him.

    It must have been an overwhelming experience for Elijah on Mt Carmel mustn't it? In fact, to see the lightning fall from the sky and consume everything on the altar, after what was the simplest of prayers by Elijah, must have had an incredible impact not only on him but on everyone present. It ...read more

    Obadiah was a good man in a bad place, risking all to protect God's prophets...his concerns resonate with anyone with a stressful job, and show us the path to encouragement and reassurance.

    It would be easy to skip over this passage as merely a transition, leading to the exciting confrontation that follows on Mount Carmel. Yet this brief episode in the life of Elijah is for anyone who feels discouraged and defeated. Following three years of drought, three years of decisively ...read more
