Man of God

Q: I read your blog about being "a man of God." So how would you know if you were a Biblical "man of God?" I mean is there tangible evidence that would present itself to support such a claim?

A: Yes, I believe there would be. Take a look, for example, at 2 Kings 1:12, where Elijah said, "If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men!" Then the fire of God fell from heaven and consumed him and his fifty men. In my book, that's tangible evidence.

I believe a true man of God would be walking so in tune with God that every step he takes and every breath he draws is totally in sync with the Father in heaven. A man of God can raise the dead, separate the seas, command water to pour out of rocks, and other such miracles. Mind you, it's not the miracles that make him a man of God. Rather it is the relationship he has with God that enables God's miraculous powers to flow through him. He is that yielded to the Lord, that obedient.
