ARE YOU DOING YOUR PART?

" Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me". 2 Kings 2:9. Many people pray like Elisha, "Lord, give me a double portion of Your anointing". Especially most of us are praying like this during the New Year's service. But we do not realize the preparation that is involved for such a miraculous thing to occur. Elijah and Elisha traveled together and finally they journeyed to the banks of the RIVER JORDAN WHERE THE LORD TESTED ELISHA'S VISION. Was it of man, or of God? The prophet said to the servant, "..ask what shall I do for thee, before I be taken away from thee". Elisha said, "I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me". 2 Kings 2:9. Elijah responded, "Thou hast asked me a hard thing: nevertheless, If thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee". 2 Kings 2:10. In other words, If your vision is clear, and your eyes are on things above, you'll receive it". Habakkuk 2:2 declares "..WRITE THE VISION AND MAKE IT PLAIN". My friend, let me explain to you: There are three keys to seeing a vision fulfilled in the year 2016 for you. 1) It must be plain, meaning a vision cannot be cloudy or full of questions or indecisiveness. 2) You must run to receive it, meaning your prayer life must intensify. Walking is prayer... running is intensified prayer. 3) The vision is for "an appointed time". Wait for it. Never give up. YOUR FAITH IS VITAL FOR THE VISION'S FULFILLMENT. Suddenly, the prophet was caught up into the heavens! A chariot of fire appeared- yet Elisha could see clearly enough to pick up the mantle that was left behind. Bro: look at him: He walked to the same river where he had seen the prophet Elijah use the mantle to separate the waters. He said,.."where is the Lord God of Elijah"? - and the waters of Jordan were again miraculously parted. Hey, hey, IF YOU HAVE A VISION FOR 2016, DO YOUR PART FOR IT TO COME TO PASS. I have a news for you "NO MATTER HOW ANOINTED YOU ARE- GOD WILL NOT BRUSH YOUR TEETH! OUCH!
