Double Blessing Conclusion

7. A time for action

After Elijah’s translation Elisha wasted no time wondering if the Spirit of the Lord was upon him. He took Elijah’s fallen mantle and walked to the Jordan River. He said, “Where is the Lord God of Elijah’ and he struck the water with the mantle. Elisha’s first miracle was the same as Elijah’s final one. Elisha knew that not only had the physical mantle of Elijah been give to him but also the mantle of the prophet was upon him.
