Key Verse: “We are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us.”

                                                                                                            2 Corinthians 5:20 (NLT) 

1 Kings 19:19-21 (NLT) 

19 So Elijah went and found Elisha son of Shaphat plowing a field. There were twelve teams of oxen in the field, and Elisha was plowing with the twelfth team. Elijah went over to him and threw his cloak across his shoulders and then walked away. 20 Elisha left the oxen standing there, ran after Elijah, and said to him, “First let me go and kiss my father and mother good-bye, and then I will go with you!” 

Elijah replied, “Go on back, but think about what I have done to you.” 

21 So Elisha returned to his oxen and slaughtered them. He used the wood from the plow to build a fire to roast their flesh. He passed around the meat to the townspeople, and they all ate. Then he went with Elijah as his assistant. 

Elisha’s ALL-IN moment: 

21 So Elisha returned to his oxen and slaughtered them. He used the wood from the plow to build a fire to roast their flesh. He passed around the meat to the townspeople, and they all ate. Then he went with Elijah as his assistant. 

• Elisha wasn’t just buying in…he was SELLING OUT! 

 ALL-IN COMMITMENT requires ALL-IN OBEDIENCE 

1. ALL-IN Obedience Will Be Tested 

“A test is simply an opportunity to get a testimony.”  
– Mark Batterson 

 2. ALL-IN Obedience Often Releases God’s Miracles 

- When you walk in obedience TO God, you are not surprised by the miracles FROM God. 

3. ALL-IN Obedience Always Requires Faith 

- Delayed obedience is disobedience. 

- Obedience is our responsibility…the outcome is God’s responsibility. 

Trade FEAR for FAITH 

Risk SAFETY for MIRACLES 

Go ALL IN!!!
