R³ Devotional - Day 183

2 Kings 2 is a powerful narrative about God's faithfulness in raising up leaders, the importance of spiritual mentorship, the pursuit of God's anointing, and the reality of His supernatural intervention in the lives of His servants. It calls us to reflect on our own spiritual journeys, our relationships with mentors, and our hunger for God's power working in our lives.

Real Life Principle:
The Importance of Mentorship and Discipleship: Elijah served as a faithful mentor to Elisha, investing in him, guiding him, and preparing him for ministry. Elisha, in turn, was a diligent disciple, committed to following his master and learning from him. This emphasizes the vital role of spiritual mentorship in raising up the next generation of leaders.

Relevant life application:
 Actively seek and nurture spiritual mentors in our lives and mentees. Have an "Elijah" we are learning from, and be an "Elisha" to someone else.

Real life action steps:
Pray for interactions with others whom you can invest into and be around those you can learn from. Be intentional about your relationship with others.
