12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
13 He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;

MFM Devotional For Today 2025 MESSAGE:
The mantle is a symbol of anointing and authority which one receives to fulfil ministry. It signifies divine responsibility, God’s accompanying power, unction to function, authority of ease and God’s overshadowing anointing that cannot be insulted.
The mantle Elisha received from Elijah was highly instrumental to Elisha’s huge success in ministry. The mantle, therefore, is a carrier of the anointing and an instrument for performing signs and wonders. We will recall that it was his mantle that Elijah cast upon Elisha to signify Elisha’s call. Elisha also received his master’s mantle when he (Elijah) was departing the earth in order to continue the glorious ministry. The mantle was thus the power resident in Elijah through the Holy Spirit. Therefore, giving it to Elisha meant that Elijah transferred that power of God resident in him to his successor, Elisha. Thank God that Elisha put it to good use.

The Bible says that the kingdom of God is not in words but in the demonstration of God’s power. The end-time harvest of souls will succeed greatly as long as God’s servants are able to produce proofs (signs and wonders) that validate the sovereignty and almightiness of Jehovah. Only fools argue with divine proofs. When the children of Israel saw fire fall from heaven and it consumed the sacrifice, wood, and even licked the water on the altar they bowed, worshipped Jehovah, the God of Elijah and said, “Jehovah truly is God.” All their doubts and indecision vanished.
The first demonstration of the supernatural power of God by Elisha after Elijah was taken up was done with the mantle he received from Elijah. He needed to cross River Jordan. Right there at the bank of the river, Elisha proved that the mantle carried unusual anointing. He smote the water of River Jordan with the mantle and the river parted this and that way. Elisha crossed on dry ground. Elisha
Today, the mantle is symbolic of the glorious, powerful, superior and mighty Holy Spirit cloak upon you to do great and mighty things. As a New Testament believer, the mantle is a spiritual adornment of His power upon your spirit man. Use it to populate and build God’s Kingdom!
