Elisha was Elijah’s apprentice. I am thankful for the ministry role models I had. Elisha wasn’t ready for Elijah to leave. He didn’t even want to talk about it. When God took Elijah in the whirlwind, Elisha was left tearing his clothes in grief. He had just witnessed Elijah parting the Jordan River with his cloak. Now Elisha is returning and faces that same Jordan River. Elisha asks, “Where now is the Lord, the God of Elijah?” Then Elisha struck the River with his cloak and the Jordan River parted. Elijah’s God was with Elisha and He is with us!
