A few years ago I was recounting a problem I had to my son and he said, "Mum you're bigger than that!" I've never forgotten it and when I face a situation that seems daunting I hear his voice in my head "You're bigger than that!"
That brings me to asking you what are you dealing with at the minute? Whatever it is, because you're in Jesus and joined with Him, you are definitely bigger than that, and greater is He that is in you than whatever you are facing!
The trouble is we have a tendency to think too small, we're tempted to think we're not able to overcome, that it has the upper hand because of what we feel and see. But I'm here to remind us we're walking by faith, not what we see. We're walking by what God has said in His word about us, that we are Overcomers, More Than Conquerors, that Jesus has given us the victory.
We'll never hear of God thinking small, or of Him being limited, or only able to make a small difference to our lives. Definitely not!😊
We know God is huge. Huge in power, huge in love and grace towards us and there is nothing too hard for Him. He's the biggest thing out there! So I asked myself why am I thinking small or negative thoughts? We have the One who flung stars into space, whose Word is upholding the universe dwelling inside us.
Jesus himself said all things are possible with God, and all things are possible to him who believes. Are we believing too small? He's saying it's time to start thinking and believing bigger because God has made us bigger than the illnesses, bigger than our weaknesses, bigger than our defeats or problems!
If we're going to believe God for something it might as well be big! He wants to show us great and mighty things. We wont give God a headache if we think and imagine big things, big healings, big deliverances, big projects.😊 He actively encourages us to do it in Ephesians 3:20!
Instead of thinking "If I could just get well." Let’s think "God I'm expecting 100% deliverance, for it never to return, to live in vibrant health!" Don't just think, "If my children could be saved." Let's think "My kids are going to be saved and do mighty things for God" Replace "If I could just have enough money to pay the bills." with "I'll have more than enough and be a blessing to someone else!"
Let's ask the Lord what it is He wants us to believe Him for, to show us great and mighty things, and then reach out in faith for them in Jesus Name. Amen.
Have a blessed weekend.x😊
I'll have more than enough and be a blessing to someone else. This reminds me of Sadio Mane is an inspiration for me. He gives money to each house in his village every month.
