The body must work together to be efficient. In the same way the Church must be able to work together with Christ the head to be efficient.

It is not a religious people who will change our nation, it is not a religious people who will change the direction in which the Church is heading. It is a people with a double portion. It is a people who have the life of Christ in them that will change our generation.

The double portion is the life of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit abiding in me. Before possessing the double portion, Elisha had to undertake a journey; likewise, it is a purposeful journey that we also must undertake. The life of Christ is never imposed on you or me-we have the option given to us from God.

What is meant by the life of double portion? How do I find it? How do I get there? How do I appropriate the double portion? And once I have it, what is the outworking of this in my life? And if I love a life of double portion in God, what will I leave behind when I die? The life of Elisha gives some very clear answers that we will study in today's episode of our DAILY PASSION, entitled: Living a Life of Double Portion part 1.

Sin has consequences, yet people often condemn the consequences that have arisen as a result of sin and treat them as sin. A consequence may lead to more sin, but the consequence itself is not a sin. It is the result of sin.

In today's Daily PASSION episode we are exploring faith and how God has always used young people to get his message to the world., and He still desires to do so today. All he looks for are those who will put their faith into action.

Thousands of years ago a city was built between those two mountains. The reason was obvious. The two mountains afforded a degree of protection and the confluence of two trade routes made it an ideal location for a settlement. That ancient city was called Shechem. Today we want to consider the History of this city and how it relates to us as Christians.

All the misery, sorrow and murders and every other wretched thing that we see in the world around us, is due to man having decided to choose for himself what is good and what is evil. He doesn't want God to tell him. Multitudes of Christians live with Self as the center of their life - and they reap what they sow.

The initial bout of suffering that came on Job was sudden and enormous. In one day, Job was stripped of his wealth and bereaved of his ten children. In Job 1 we have a blow by blow account of Job’s suffering, as one messenger after another comes to tell Job that he has lost everything.

The book of Job deals with the age-old question of human suffering, but does this from a believer’s perspective. The question is not general, Why is there evil in this world? but rather, Why do the righteous suffer? Why do God’s people suffer? Ultimately, this a question about God: Why does God bring suffering into the lives of His people?
