Features like the Life Application notes connect Bible passages to everyday situations and help boys apply it to their lives today. Check it out by reading 2 Kings 2:9 and the corresponding Life Application note on having pure motives:
“When they came to the other side, Elijah said to Elisha, ‘Tell me what I can do for you before I am taken away.’ And Elisha replied, ‘Please let me inherit a double share of your spirit and become your successor.’” 2 Kings 2:9, NLT
Elisha asked to become Elijah’s successor. He literally asked Elijah for a “double share of your spirit.” This was a bold request, but God granted it. Why? Because Elisha’s motives were pure. His 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 big things from God. What’s your request?
