What do you do when God has answered all your needs?
This is a major reason why believers loose their fervency and intimacy with the Lord. Suddenly they realize their initial reason of pursuing after God has been settled. Their prayer points are now answered points (Rev Sam Oye). They realise there's an emptiness. Successful but not fulfilled. Have needs met but how do they respond to new levels of abundance or achievements. How should they yet maintain a hunger for God beyond just Him meeting their needs?
In teaching about prayer (the Lord's prayer) Jesus, revealed that there are two things key to man's wholesome existence on the earth. Fulfiment. Things of the earth and things in the heaven. The perfect prayer is that which embodies the desire not just for the bread for the earth but also the bread of the heaven. The reason why there's a bread on the earth to desire is that there is a bread in the heavens for daily living. So, Jesus replied satan that, man shall not live by bread alone but by every word (the will of God) that proceeds out of the mouth of God. The bread of the earth gives success but just that won't bring fulfillment (living). It takes feasting on the daily will of God.
THE ABRAHAM REMEDY.
God had answered the prayer of Abraham by giving Him a child as promised. This made Abraham successful among men but he was yet unfulfilled. Fulfillment is the measure of eternal relevance of the things of a man. How such meets and cause the fulfilment of the eternal agenda of God.
So, in bringing about fulfilment God had to teach him to surrender his success on the altar for the greater good of God's will. It must be man's success for God's fulfilment. Because what keeps us genuinely hungry and of sustained hunger is our willingness to loose our advantage for God's advantage
Because what keeps us genuinely hungry and of sustained hunger in the things of God, is our willingness to loose our advantage for God's advantage upon the earth. In success we bless just ourself but in fulfilment we bless all of God's creation. God's will is insatiable. Therefore, staying with a heart that satisfy God will automatically commit the seeker to being hungry and thirsty.
