WHEN YOU MAKE A COMMITMENT
HOW FAR WILL YOU GO TO CARRY IT OUT?

Elisha asked for twice as much power as Elijah had. This was a bold request, but God granted it. Why? Because Elisha's motives were pure. His main goal was not to be better or more powerful than Elijah but to accomplish more for God. If our motives are pure, we don't have to be afraid to ask for great things from God. When we ask God for great power or ability, we need to examine our motives and get rid of any selfishness we find.
