Today, as we round off our discourse on the Lord God of Elijah and why we need to connect to Him, I would like us to examine more important issues about this unusual God.
Elisha asked this important question because he needed to be sure that Elijah’s God was with him, as He was with his predecessor. Though he had Elijah’s mantle in his hand, it would amount to an ordinary piece of cloth if he did not have Elijah’s God. He replicated what Elijah did with his mantle by parting River Jordan with Elijah’s mantle and crossing it. The sons of the prophets saw the miracle and they bowed to him.
I pray that your enemies and mockers will bow to you, in the Name of Jesus.
When Joshua succeeded Moses, God gave him an assurance, “No man shall be able to stand before you; as I am with Moses, so I will be with you…” (Joshua 1:5). Therefore, the God of Elijah is the God who graciously gives His abiding presence to His servants.
Also, the God of Elijah keeps His children in the midst of a pervert generation, and even in perilous times. Beloved, the God who kept Elijah faithful when most of the Israelites had turned away from Him can keep you faithful and loyal. The Bible says about the same God, “Unto Him who is able to keep us from falling and present us blameless before His throne, be glory and honour forever, in the Name of Jesus.”
In addition, the God of Elijah whom Elisha called upon in that critical moment is the God that answers prayers. Elijah was a man mighty in prayer. The wonderful proofs that characterised his public ministry confirm that. His unfailing decree also attests to it.
The God of Elijah gives His servants the spirit of grace and supplication; He turns them to prayer warriors and intercessors as well as His partners in fulfilling His end-time agenda.
More than ever before, the world needs more men of fire and prayer like Moses, Elijah and Elisha that He will use to continue to demonstrate His power.
Finally, the God of Elijah raises the dead and orchestrates revival.
Beloved, connect to the Lord God of Elijah today.
