Topic: Magnify Your God [2nd October 2018 Daily Devotional]
Do you know you can make God bigger? Now I’m not referring to making Him bigger in size, but in your perception of Him. You have the power to make Him either big or small. Most of us have become so good at enlarging the problem, and minimizing God, and His Word. We place more value on our problem than we do on God. The centurion said to Jesus, I’m not worthy for you to come to my house, all you need to do is speak the Word, and I know that your Word would be honored.
It all depends on what you place a premium on. Do you place a higher value on who God is than your challenges. When you understand that your challenges are small compared with the Almightiness of our God, then it changes everything. This is why our ministry’s mission statement clearly states: “Here we do not look at the ‘bigness’ of your problems, but at the ‘Bigness’ of our God”. Our God is the Almighty! When the doctor comes with negative reports, don’t place a premium on that report, but rather on the Word that tells you that by His stripes, you were healed.
You can magnify the Lord and make Him and His Word bigger than any problem. Do it by glorifying, praising and thanking Him. There are several people who overcame their dire situations in the scriptures, search out those people and meditate on the word. Make it more real to you than the problem. You must get to a place where God’s word is true and where He is greater than any situation.
The songwriter sang, “Our God is greater, Our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other, Our God is greater, awesome in power Our God”. These are the truth about God that we must live by daily. We serve a Mighty God.
