Elijah and the Chariots of Fire

Hey GIGI kids, Today we have a great Bible story! This story tells about the prophet Elijah and how a chariot of fire transported him to heaven. You can find the story in your Bible in 2 Kings 2. Here's a sneak peek... When they reached the edge of the Jordan river Elijah took his cloak, rolled it up, and struck the water with it. The water divided to the right and to the left, and the two of them crossed over on dry ground. When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, "Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken from you?" "Let me inherit a double portion of your spirit," Elisha replied. "You have asked a difficult thing," Elijah said, "yet if you see me when I am taken from you, it will be yours—otherwise, it will not." What happened next? To find out, find a comfortable spot and listen to the episode. _____________________________________________________ Story by: Ashlee Price READ STORY ON THE BLOG VISIT OUR WEBSITES SHOP OUR BOOKS SHOP OUR AUDIOBOOKS Special effects editing: James Wagner  Music credit: http://www.purple-planet.com/  Email us: [email protected] Write to us: GIGI KIDS STORIES PO BOX 6505 Upper Mt Gravatt Queensland Australia 4122
