What happens when we resist the perfection process?

For a while now I have been thinking along this line of the difference between wants and needs. For us, healing might be a need. For God physical healing might be a want. What we really need might not be what we think we need. And when we pray do we present what we think we need in terms of what we really just desire a lot or do we press God that this is something we really need and so He should do it?

Do we have our prioties right in prayer?
Luk 12:30 For all the nations of the world seek after these things, and your Father knows that you need them.
Luk 12:31 Instead, seek his kingdom, and these things will be added to you.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
