I write all that is below because I feel I should share a glimpse, and that is all it is, of what I have come home from. I share it with you not to make you jealous, but to create within you a longing for the things of God. We are too content. Thats what was revealed to me this morning at church, I called people to hunger, thirst, longing, to want to chase after Him, to see His words bear fruit. Read what God has said He will do, read what Jesus said about Himself and his kingdom and our authority, read it and then declare it. We are living with the bar set too low, we are far too satisfied and content with where we are and the tiny things we are asking for. How big is your God? I ask again, how big is your God? Sit under His waterfall, ask for Him to fill you so that you might be brimming, that you might be poured out to everyone you come into contact with. Stop being comfortable and satisfied. Divine discontent. I dare you to pray for it ;)

Elijah to Elisha (his servant) = Double portion

Elisha to Gehazi = could have given him double of double...what would that even have LOOKED like?!

Instead....

the man who could have asked to receive 4 times the anointing of Elijah who himself raised the dead and commanded weather and fire from heaven, let alone Elisha who raised the dead after he himself was dead....

...chose to run after the things of the world and lost it all

We have to live in a place of no compromise, it will cost us, but we need to gain a Holy fear of the Lord that pushes us into a place of obedience, love, devotion and unswervedness.
