Elijah was a mighty prophet but he was also one of the great disciple makers of the Old Testament. When Elijah died, his spiritual son, Elisha, could only cry out, “My father! My father!” The Bible tells us that Elisha moved on with a double portion of Elijah’s anointing to accomplish amazing things for the Lord.
In this intensive study we will learn:
- The importance of raising up spiritual sons or daughters
- Developing the heart of a spiritual parent
- Living in the spirit and power of Elijah
- How to pass on the anointing to the next generation
- The lasting impact of spiritual parenting
Elijah’s life was so effective that the Lord sent John the Baptist “in the spirit and power or Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous – to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.” Today the spirit of Elijah is desperately needed so that we can play our part in preparing a people for the Lord.
