God wants Christian to have a hunger for God, to be an extraordinary Christian for not just a day, but everyday... a lifetime..
at times, we think that we know best but, when we actually surrender our life to Him, there is a higher purpose... a better outcome at the end of the day
God wants to see what's in you heard and thus, He test us. He knows what we're thinking... and we can say what we think is nice to hear and things like that, but that, might not be what's in our heart... so in order to know what your heart really desires, God test us..
~a Christian who's on fire for God keeps his relationship with God fresh~
Gilgal
Gilgal is the place where the people of Israel was there for 40 years, during the 40 years of wilderness. There, God wants to teach them to walk by faith, and not by sight. Not to live by feeling, whether you're able to "feel" God's presence or not.
Bethel
Bethel was the place where Jacob had his vision.. the vision of ladders from heaven..
Jericho
Joshua fought the battle in Jericho and God gave him victory, the wall of Jericho fell. It is a place where God gives you great victory. it is the city of the past.
Jordan
John the Baptist saw the dove land on Jesus.
Elisha saw the anointing on Elijah and he wanted more.. Elisha did not get distracted when the people said that his master would be taken away from him that day. Elisha kept his eyes on his heart desire.
God will never ask "what do you want Me to do for you?" to casual believers. He only ask that when He sees your heart desire.
when there's an anointing upon you, God will always make a way. even obstacles part and give way. so today, lets just ask ourself.. am I ready to receive His anointing??
