Greatness of God

The book of Ephesians has spoken to my heart over the past few months.  I have found myself seeking to understand the revelation that Paul received concerning the greatness of God and the rich reserves of His grace and mercy.  This morning my eyes fell on this passage found in Ephesians 1:19-20, "I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God's power for us who believe him.  This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God's right hand in the heavenly realms" (NLT).  My, what a powerful prayer for understanding that Paul is declaring over the believers.

Today I am asking God to release that understanding in each of our lives.  We must recognize the greatness of God's power and understand that He is able to perform the impossible and the improbable.  We were able to recognize a small portion of the greatness of God's power in the revival meeting this past week in Brecksville, OH.  On Wednesday night we witnessed a precious Hindu woman accept Jesus Christ as her Savior as she sensed the true love of God being released in her heart.  We were able to see people receive healing of all sorts of challenges that they were facing.  I was blessed as people asked for prayer for specific situations that they were facing at that particular moment in their life.  Don't you think that it is time for the "church" to lift our eyes to God and realize that His power and authority is great and awesome?  Many of us have come to the end of our abilities but we are understanding that there is someone greater than us and that He has the power to meet the challenges of life that we are confronting.  Take a moment out of your busy day and truly reflect on the "incredible greatness of God's power for us who believe Him."

Have a great weekend; turn your heart toward Christ during worship service and allow Him to speak LIFE into your very soul!
