An all-consuming spiritual passion seized Elisha as soon as Elijah placed his mantle on him. He left his oxen and ran after Elijah and became his attendant. He said, “As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I will not leave you” (2 Kings 2:2). When Elijah’s earthly ministry was coming to a close, Elisha asked to inherit a double portion of his spirit (2 Kings 2:9) and the Lord granted his request. What is your consuming passion? What are you asking the Lord for?
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”
— Matthew 7:7 (NIV 1984)
Lord Jesus, give us a double portion of the Holy Spirit. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
