#1 Kings 19:19-21; 1 Kings 19#
Henry discusses the importance of mentorship and succession in faith using the story of Elijah and Elisha. Emphasizing obedience to God's call and the passing on of spiritual gifts and knowledge to future generations, he explores themes of discipleship, commitment, and the transformative power of divine appointments, illustrating how encountering God changes our priorities and compels us to invest in others. The sermon calls for listeners to recognize their own roles in nurturing faith in others, both as mentors and those being mentored, with examples of embracing one's divine assignment, surrendering to God's plan, and investing in the spiritual growth of others, creating a legacy of faith and impact and answering God's call to serve a purpose greater than themselves by being open to divine interventions, recognizing how God positions people to influence each other in significant ways, and leaving a spiritual inheritance for the next generation.
