The Elisha Generation (Part 1)

Topic: The Elisha Generation

Text: 2 Kings 2:1 And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.

We live in a time where the Lord is raising many sons to replace the generals of the previous generation. The men who served the Lord with all their hearts and attained great heights in God are gradually leaving this realm and they are leaving behind a great gap, but God, in His infinite wisdom has made their mantles available for the generation that is coming right behind them.

God is a generational God; His works always transcend a generation and that is why He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. His works are beyond what a generation can handle. The transfer of mantles is one of the doctrines of Christ mentioned in Hebrews chapter 6 (laying on of hands) and it is meant to transfer giftings. We see it portrayed in the ministry of Timothy too.

The transfer of mantles happened between Elijah and Elisha and this particular one point to a prophetic type and shadow for our fathers and our generation. In recent times, several men that played a key role in the move of God in the last century are going to meet with the Lord. Paul Cain slept this month, Billy Graham's passing is just about a year old. T.L. Osbourne, Bob Jones have all left in the last 5 years. As these men are leaving, they are being replaced by a people that will carry their anointing in blisters which means that no one can claim monopoly of their grace in God.

An American Pastor had a dream when Billy Graham passed on and he saw how the mantle of Billy broke into several thousand pieces and landed on many young people. The mantles of men of God that have passed on are still available for our generation to pick up and walk in.

Elisha was the only person who was rightly positioned to receive the mantle of Elijah despite him not being the only student in the school of prophet. If we will be part of this Elisha generation that will be rightly positioned to receive the mantles of these men, we must learn how Elisha did it. I will highlight some of the lessons we need to learn by the grace and mercy of God.

I urge you to pay attention to the workings on God in our generation. You should be a partaker and not a spectator.

The Coming Of The Lord Is Near

Oranmiyan (Part 3: Origin of Yoruba)

Our journey will begin by identifying who the Yoruba people are. From the stories and relics of the children of the tribe, it is obvious that the projenitors of the tribe were deeply rooted in sorcery. Especially those who constitute the royal families. Their blood lines is soaked in idolatry, divination and sorcery. They know how to access principalities and powers and learn their worship modes. There are many stories about the origin of the Yoruba race. The Yoruba race has two major stories about their origin. One is supernatural. The other is natural The supernatural or divine one said that the supreme being, God, sent a god- Obatala to come and create the earth, but he got drunk and God had to send another god- Oduduwa. This is what some people hold. This school of thought has several loopholes chief of which is that Oduduwa entered Ile Ife in 11AD, but Ife Arts, according to carbon dating goes way back as 500BC which means that there was life in Ile Ife before Oduduwa came in.

Oranmiyan (Part 4: Lamurudu vs Oduduwa)

After being forced out of his land, Lamurudu settled in Egypt for some time where he deepened his knowledge in sorcery. He learned several patterns of rituals which still exists in some parts of Ijebu today. At that time, the Egyptians have developed so well in the worship of their gods who were originally men. The concept of gods begins with a man encountering a demonic prince who is looking for obeisance from men. These princes have the same goal as Lucifer. Once they begin to get attention from a man, the man begins to take up their (dark) nature because it is a law in the spirit realm that whatever you behold, you become. The consecration of these men to the worship of the princes led to the reproduction of the abilities and characteristics of the prince in the man, so the man becomes great among other men. Most of these men takes up the name of the prince that they worship such that when the man dies, you can keep calling his name and the prince responds to your request thereby es

Oranmiyan (Part 5: The gods of Egypt)

During the sojourn of Lamurudu in Egypt, what was going on in Egypt at that time was similar to what happened in Genesis 6:1-2 where demonic entities found a way to reproduce themselves in women to establish a race of beings that were not fully humans. These creatures were very big that they were called Giants. They had 6 fingers and toes and unusual strength. Bible refer to them as Nephilims which means mysterious beings who are large and strong. Some other meanings called them fallen ones. They had supernatural abilities and they preyed on full humans. The situation was like what was portrayed in Harry Potter that had pure bloods, half bloods, mud bloods and muggles. The pure bloods were the witches whose both parents are also witches, half blood is a witch with one parent as witch, mud blood has both parents as normal people and muggles are non witches. At that time in Genesis 6, the Nephilims had created another race on earth that paralleled the pure humans. This what why God sent
