How can I do great things?

The Lord took the small, seemingly insignificant and turned it into a feast for over five thousand people. He took things that were impossible and made them very real. Jesus opened the eye's of the blind, made the lamb to walk, even the wind and sea obeyed the voice of the Everlasting King. He raised the dead, and caused the deaf to hear again. Jesus, the son of the Living God was the Word made flesh. He spoke with authority yet with pure love. Jesus did more than we can comprehend in our world turning the hearts of the people from their religious bondage to bring an everlasting salvation. Jesus used small things to do great things. He turned the water to wine, the two fish and five loafs into a feast, and he turned his death into the greatest miracle of ressurection this world has ever seen for it is still bringing souls to life to this very day. When we think of how powerless we truly are and the desperation of the world in need. One would almost shutter. How can I accomplish anything. But when we look to the holy words we see the illustration of what God has always used. He always uses the thing that looks and feels impossible. So next time you see your neighbor in need and the task seems too great for little ole you, think about what Jesus said, "All things are possible to them that believe".
We serve a true and living God. He is holy and just. He will not put a burden on your heart and then leave you without the power to complete it. If he stirred you for a task, no matter how great, he will equipt you for the job. You will find the words, the strength, the authority, the ability to overcome every obstacle, and the anointing will be there to heal, mend, speak, edify, confirm, and direct. Jesus will not leave you alone. He said " I will never leave you nor forsake you". Though we may feel small, unlearned, powerless, seemingly insignificant. Trust in the unction that God has placed in you and do great things through him.

Uriah

You have to stop and take note of the attitude and perspective of the men that followed king David, as illustrated in the story of Uriah the Hittite. When brought from the battle to feast with the king then sent home with "a mess of meat" as the Bible portrays it. But when this Israelite soldier left the king, rather than go to his house and lie with his wife, he slept at the door of the king's house with the other servants. Even when the king made him drunk the next day he still held the same attitude in denying the comfort of going to his house. When asked of his reasoning for such action, he simply said "the ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in tents and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord are encamped in the open fields, shall I then go to my house to eat and to drink, and lie with my wife? As thou livest, and as thy soul livest I will not do this thing." What a heart of character Uriah had. What an illustration of how a soldier of the cross of Jesus should handle himself in all things. The very first thing mentioned by Uriah was the ark. The significance of this is huge, because the ark is where the presence of Jehovah dwelt. It was the focal point of all worship in his day. The ark represented the moving of God. It symbolized the providing of God. It spoke to the people that God was walking with them. Uriah could have pleasured himself and went his way but in his heart the ark , the people, and his leader were all one body. If one were afflicted all should mourn. If one lacked all should suffer. If one were victorious all should celebrate. Where are the Uraih's of today? There is so much more one could unvail from this little story from the pages of the Old Testament, time would fail me to keep going. But let me make one other point. The name Uriah means "fire of Jah" (Jah being the short version of Jehovah). The fire of God. Wow! So in essence we that are saved and filled with the spirit of God have a Uraih living inside of us. One that prefers his brother. One that doesn't lift himself up. One that is unified with the rest of the body.
I hope this simple message lifts your soul to new horizons in the Lord. I pray your heart mind and soul is strengthened in Jesus precious name.
Amen!
