Enoch and Elijah bypassed death as will everyone born again and alive when Christ returns. However, Elijah was sent on a journey by the spirit of the Lord to various cities prior to his departure that would set him in proper alignment before he left. Discovery what these cities represented and how they can benefit us before the catching away.

We allow certain circumstances and situations, dare I say wounds to define us. We permit them to characterize the finality of our lives when in reality they should only distinguish us.

Eve has been associated with being the first woman, the first wife, the first deceived, and the first transgressed. However, let us not skip over the most important... the first mother. Through "the" childbearing, humanity is saved. Her blessing was greater than her curse!

This is a splattering of lessons from Elijah. However, the main thrust is probably the importance of having a successor in your life and ministry.

Often times after God has promised us some things the enemy attempts to take or snatch our promise. At that moment, we must rise and ward off the attack of our adversary. In doing so, we fight using our faith in what God has promised us.

To stop at repentance and water baptism is to deny Jesus' resurrection. Many have only fulfilled a portion of the journey. However, we must follow the Lord even after his passion.

In spite of what life may provide, we must never give up our cup. We must serve when things frustrate us or when our expectations are not met because we are serving the king. The greatest in the kingdom must be servant of all!

God always marries his touch with his Word. If God touches you, there is something beyond that. We must be patient to wait on the word that accompanies the touch.

No greater appreciation for Elijah will be derived than in the 19th chapter of 1 Kings. It is here we see him respond as human flesh. If you couldn't identify with him being obedient without hesitation to the voice of the Lord that he unmistakably knew, then here you can truly identify with the prophet.

Technical difficulties only allowed the first 24 minutes of this sermon to be recorded. However, those minutes were deemed important enough to share. Walk with David as he does the right thing and yet everything seems to be turning out wrong. Perhaps how we respond as a victim will help our victor status. Our apologies for this short segment. Please glean from these precious recorded moments.
