Summary
When you look at someone’s position, you see the glory. But do you see the weight?
Pastor Keion Henderson unpacks what actually happened during the transfer of leadership at The Potter’s House almost a year ago. Drawing from the biblical transfer between Elijah and Elisha (1 Kings 19:19-21, 2 Kings 2:9-15), he reveals how Elisha didn’t ask for the position. He asked for the spirit that drove the man. Because every great move of God costs somebody something.
When God calls you, He first asks you to change your plans to change someone else’s world. And when you’re tired? God says to get up because sometimes His answer to our discouragement is divine assignment.
Pastor Henderson says the mantle only falls on motion. Elisha was working his 12 oxen when the call came. He wasn’t waiting for perfection; he was faithful with what he had. And the mantle isn’t just on the Roberts — it’s on you. The church. A transfer is coming.
What are you going to do with it?

| 0:16.7 | Oh, my God. |
| 0:19.1 | I wrote it and threw it away, preached that it didn't like it, said it in the mirror, it didn't work. And the one that I'm getting ready to preach today is the one I gave up on. So I know the Lord must want me to preach this word today. |
| 0:38.7 | I have three passages of scripture. |
| 0:41.1 | They are not long, so don't allow that to deter you. |

| 1:47.7 | First Kings 19 and 19. |
| 1:57.4 | The part that I want to bring out of that, this is talking about the transfer between Elijah and Elijah, the middle part of the verse says that as Elijah was looking for |
| 2:06.6 | who he would place the mantle on, the Bible said that he found a man, listen, that was near the |
