Times of Transition, Day 24

It’s OK to ask for difficult things. Read 2 Kings chapter 2.

Here we see Elijah is being taken up to heaven. Elijah gives Elisha the opportunity to ask for anything. Elisha makes a very difficult request, yet Elijah says that as long as he sees him taken up, then he will receive that.

It’s okay to ask God for really difficult things. We don’t have to just ask him for little things or try to only worry about the small stuff. We can ask God for the really big and challenging things. God is more than capable of handling those types of requests if it’s in his will. He can absolutely make it happen, big or small. Are we bringing all of our issues to God and allowing him to work through them?
