Seeing the supernatural impacts the lives of people, but living in the supernatural is of much greater impact. The biblical account in the Gospel of Matthew 14: 22-33 allows us to see that Peter walked literally over the waters and, at one point, hesitated and began to sink, but the other disciples did not even dare to ask.
The bible says: But seeing the strong wind, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying: Lord, save me! At once Jesus stretched out his hand, and took hold of him, and said to him, O man of little faith! Why did you doubt? Matthew 14: 30-31 (VRV'60)
God is supernatural. God gave gifts to men for the task entrusted to them, but fear paralyzes us, most of the time. We can work many miracles, evangelize crowds, prophesy, etc. But, to live in the supernatural, the Lord needs to "cut" what is left over.
There is a story that illustrates this principle, and it is in 1 Kings 17: 3: Get away from here, and turn to the east, and hide yourself in the brook Cherith, which is opposite the Jordan. (VRV)
To understand; the prophet had been a short time in public and, guided by the Spirit of God, he pronounced sentence on that region, because of the sin of the king and his consort. Sin closes the heavens.
To be a person who walks in the supernatural of God, our life in private with the Lord must surpass life in public.
There were four schools of prophets at that time; Elijah was from the school of Bethel (house of God) they were known as "those who look at the face of God"; the expression "in whose presence I am" (1 Kings 17: 1) means I am looking at the face of God and I prophesy. To look at the face of the Lord, to listen to what he wants us to say and do, to obey him in everything, to have a sanctified life, but it is necessary to be broken; for a greater weight of glory.
Querit means "to cut until the correct measure is left" which tells us clearly that God wants to cut us off, taking everything else away. Humanity must be bent to live in the supernatural. In the school of the Lord, to be able to work miracles on a large scale, it is necessary to enter into "Querit".
And he went through the desert a day's walk, and came and sat under a juniper tree; and wishing to die, he said: Enough, Yahweh, take my life, for I am no better than my parents.1 Kings 19: 4 (VRV) This is not the attitude or correct expression of a man of God. But the character of the prophet is to go from one extreme to another; one day he can make fire come down from heaven and the other is so bitter that he believes that God was wrong with him, is doing crazy things, is doing things very understandable to reason, and everything, for God to be glorified. The truth is that the prophet fled because he was afraid. A man with the experience of Elijah, who had seen what the Lord had done throughout his life, how he had glorified himself by allowing the shame of false worshipers and the conversion to the Lord of an entire nation in a single day (in chapter 18 of the same book); Now he was fleeing because of the threat of a woman; Jezebel He was afraid. From where he was to where he fled there were only fifteen kilometers; all desert. No one who escapes for his life is only fifteen kilometers away. He was afraid.
And lying under the juniper, he fell asleep; and behold, an angel touched him, and said to him, Get up, eat. 1 Kings 19: 4 (VRV)
Nothing grows in the desert, because it is desert. Much less a juniper; juniper is a shrub of the cypress family, it is of many branches very open. The truth is that Elijah was so angry, so bitter, so afraid that he could not realize that he was under the miracle of God. It does not happen also with us? What do we complain about in the desert and because of that we can not see that we are living under the miracle of God?
God is good and knows how to do things. How many times are we put into querit to be "cut" in such a way that we stay in the right measure and be prepared to perform supernatural miracles like those that Elijah did.
Men of the stature of Elias are no longer seen. They are scarce. But the God of Elijah remains the same, He does not change, his character remains the same, therefore there is hope, heaven and earth spend more his word not. And that is our hope; that winds of change are blowing ...
Believe in Jehovah your God, and you will be safe; believe his prophets, and you will be prospered.
2 Chronicles 20: 20b (VRV)
