A Man Who Has Godıs Favor

"Let us go with you because we have heard that God is with you" (Zechariah 8:23).

Few men of God have become extraordinary people of faith without the influence of mentors. A mentor is one who takes responsibility for the spiritual and, sometimes, physical care of another. It requires a commitment from the teacher and the student.

Elisha was mentored by Elijah. Elisha became one of the greatest prophets in all the Bible. One of the primary reasons for this was Elisha's hunger. Elisha wanted a double portion of Elijah's spirit. It was this hunger that drove Elisha to be sold out to the purposes of God for his life.

I have been privileged to have many mentors throughout my spiritual life. In each stage of my maturity, God brought new mentors who had unique gifts that the previous mentor did not have. God has given me the hunger to desire a double portion of those positive attributes of my mentors. This is sorely missing among many today. I fail to see the hunger among many who could be used greatly in the Kingdom. However, they get distracted by the cares of this world. It is an attitude of a'la'carte versus an attitude to press in to the full measure of what God might have for them.

Who are the men of God He has placed in your life? Are you learning from them? Are you seeking a double portion of their anointing? What prevents you from gaining from their wisdom and experience? God may have brought them into your life to prepare you to be a man or woman of God with great anointing. However, there is a time of training and waiting to prove out your own faith. Ask God today if there is someone He would have you mentor or be mentored by.
