Prayer: Father, may I learn through the life of Elisha, how to be a servant. Amen.
Reading: 2 Kings 3 key: vs. 11-12 “But Jehoshaphat said, “Isn’t there a prophet of Adonai here, that we may inquire of Adonai by him?” One of the king of Israel’s servants answered and said, “Elisha son of Shaphat, who used to pour water on the hands of Elijah, is here.” Jehoshaphat replied, “The word of Adonai is with him.” So the king of Israel, Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.” TLV
Attention: “The measure of a man’s greatness is not the number of servants he has, but the number of people he serves.” John Hagee
Elisha received his credentials by serving the prophet Elijah. His preparation for leadership was secured by following Elijah. Very few of us have a mentor the caliber of an Elijah. Elisha received a serendipity of the highest order when Elijah crossed his path.
For each of us who are followers of Yeshua, we have been given the highest of mentors in the Ruach Adonai, the Holy Spirit. Are we listening? Are we reading the word daily? Are we receiving the instruction He gives through the word of Adonai?
John 16: 13a is the apostle John’s record of Yeshua’s declaration, “But when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all the truth.” He is each follower’s personal mentor. The Ruach is the highest proctor a disciple can have.
Are you in training? Are you serving someone? Are you following Yeshua? A great training ground is the Choose Life Journaling lifestyle. Submit yourself to the mentoring of the Holy Spirit and transformation will begin.
Action: I choose to submit to the mentorship of the Holy Spirit.
Yield: I choose to submit to the highest mentorship in the form of the Holy Spirit.
Engage: I choose to engage with the Holy Spirit in the daily lifestyle of the Choose Life Journal.
Relationship: I choose to live in an intimacy with Adonai.
Prayer: Father, life with You is peaceable. Life without you is empty and meaningless. Why would anyone choose to live life without You? Open the eyes of those around me to the prize of life with You. Amen.
Memory Verse: Psalms 16: 11 “You make known to me the path of life. Abundance of joys are in Your presence, eternal pleasures at Your right hand.” TLV
