Pastor J.T. Kalejaiye: I am Unstoppable

TOPIC: I AM UNSTOPPABLE

TEXT: 2KINGS 2:1-10

PREACHER: PASTOR J.T. KALEJAIYE

I unstoppable, what about you?

If the red sea couldn’t stop Moses from crossing over

If the wall of Jericho couldn’t stop Joshua from crossing over

If river Jordan couldn’t stop Elijah and Elisha from crossing over

Then in Christ Jesus, nothing will stop me/you from making it.

According to the passage, Elisha was unstoppable.

Despite all the attractions and distractions, he followed Elijah.

They both left Gilgal for Bethel

They both left Bethel for Jericho

They both left Jericho for Jordan (A place of reward).

Elijah, his master wanted him to stop but Elisha refused. The sons of the prophet also persuaded him to stop but Elisha was unstoppable.

What are the Characteristics of the Unstoppable?

1.       They are the desperate people: They do not pay attention to distractions and attractions. Elisha ignored all the sons of the prophets who tried to discourage him. “You must reject the devil’s offer in order to go far.”

2.       The unstoppable are the people who are willing to acquire what they desire: Elisha left his secular job and followed Elijah. “The price payers are the prize winners”.

3.       The unstoppable are people who do not look at the obstacles but they focus on their goal: If you can see the invisible, then you can do the impossible. “Many eyes look but few eyes see”. What can you see?

4.       The unstoppable are people who do not give up easily: Elisha never gave up. “Quitters never win, winners never quit”. It doesn’t matter the number of times they fail, the will never give up. Abraham Lincoln is an example of an unstoppable one, he suffered several defeats but stood firm until he eventually experienced victory; he became the president of the United State of America.

5.       The unstoppable are those whose motto is “I CAN”: They see possibility and not probability or impossibility. Philippians 4:13. King Saul told David he couldn’t defeat Goliath but David was unstoppable and he saw the end of Goliath.

6.       The unstoppable are people who always get result: Elisha never stopped until he got the double portion. Abraham Lincoln never stopped contesting until he became the president. Jacob never stopped serving his father-in-law until he got Rachael.

7.       The unstoppable are people who do not just talk; they act: Brethren, whatever you want to do, do it fast. Do not procrastinate because procrastination is the thief of opportunities.

Elisha followed Elijah.

Who is your Elijah?

You need a leader as a ladder.

If you are not reigning, you are expected to be training.

Elijah was Elisha’s mentor

Mentorship is not about proximity, it is about connectivity.

Your connection can determine your collection…..
