Elijah Ascended now Awaiting Elisha

3 August 2011

By Mark Farquharson

In the last entry entitled: “6 months since the Sign, how long then to the Next?,” I mentioned that Dr Jones got a revelation that “Elijah had ascended.”

2Kings 2:11 And it comes to pass, they are going, going on and speaking, and lo, a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and they separate between them both, and Elijah goes up in a whirlwind, to the heavens. {CLV}

After Elijah there was Elisha, which is who we are waiting on. Back in the days of these two, Elisha started straight after Elijah. For after Elijah ascends Elisha picks up Elijah’s robe.

2Kings 2:12-15 And Elisha is seeing, and he is crying, `My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and its horsemen;' and he has not seen him again; and he takes hold on his garments, and rends them into two pieces. And he takes up the robe of Elijah, that fell from off him, and turns back and stands on the edge of the Jordan, and he takes the robe of Elijah that fell from off him, and smites the waters, and said, `Where [is] Yahweh, Elohim of Elijah--even He?' and he smites the waters, and they are halved, hither and thither, and Elisha passes over. And they see him--the sons of the prophets who [are] in Jericho--over-against, and they say, `Rested has the spirit of Elijah on Elisha;' and they come to meet him, and bow themselves to him to the earth, {CLV}

You can see that Elisha picked up the robe straight after Elijah went to heaven. However there is a delay between the two at this time, for the revelation came on the 27 July 2011. It is now several days after that and Elisha has not take up the robe.

Acts 1:4-5 And, being foregathered, He charges them not to be departing from Jerusalem, but to be remaining about for the promise of the Father, "which you hear of Me, seeing that John, indeed, baptizes in water, yet you shall be baptized in holy spirit after not many of these days." {CLV}

After Jesus was resurrected he visited the disciples a number of times. After he visited them the final time, they had not many days to wait before the holy spirit came at Pentecost. Thus Jesus ascended for the final time and they had to wait. Thus I do now think we are in this wait period.

Last entry I mentioned three dates: 14-15 January 2012 & 12 August 2011 & 24/25 August 2011

Not many days would favour the earlier date of 12 August 2011 or 24/25 August 2011. Today, 3 August, I got indication on a sign coming in August. I calculated the date between 19 June and 12 August as 54 days. However if you go from the 21 June, you get 52 days. 52 weeks is a year, thus this could be compressed time. 52 days form the 19 June gets you the 10 August. 52 is made up from the numbers 30 and 22, I have got indications on both numbers in the past.

Today I went to the Green bay beach and touched the water with my hands and put my feet in the water. I looked back to see the last time I went to that beach, it was back on the 8 April 2010, I do not think it was that long ago. On that day about 482 days ago I also touched the water, after a voice in my head said to touch the water. I did not put my feet in the water at that time. The number 482 does not mean anything to me, however I looked up numbers quickly. 490 means blessed time. 490 days takes you to 11 August 2011.

Thus the watch period indicated here is: 10-12 August 2011.
