Standing on the Mantle

In 2 Kings 2, Elijah is ready to graduate to his Heavenly home and senses it is near, but there is one holdup.. his protege Elisha. 3 times Elijah tries to get Elisha to stay behind, but undeterred he went on resolved in his heart to stay with his mentor through it all until Elijah passed his mantle of blessing.

Have you ever been Spiritually mentored? Have you ever Spiritually mentored someone? Every Elijah needs an Elisha needs an Elijah. The relationship of Elijah and Elisha serves as a beautiful picture of the need for Godly mentoring in the life of every Christian.
