Approximation

17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

Mark 16:17-18 (NKJV)

Many want to be used mightily for God’s kingdom but few want to submit to His Lordship. Mighty movements are initiated by total submission. We must cease desiring what our life doesn’t approximate.

If we are going to see what they saw, we must live what they lived. It is unfair for us to desire the miraculous and the supernatural and be unwilling to live the life that those who saw it lived. If there is an absence of the supernatural in your church, it might be because there is an absence of people living supernatural lives.
