I have a good word for you today! If you actually read it and implement it… it may make a profound difference in your life!
Have you ever considered that you have seeds of greatness in you? Now, hear me out. I’m not talking some “power of positive thinking” message, but a solid biblical truth, one you can actually bank on!
So, what entitles us to believe we have this greatness within us? Of course, we are Christ’s, co-heirs with Him, new creatures, and made in the image of God. What He has, we have.
But let’s look at another cool connection.
Galatians 3: 29 says,“And (since) you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
An heir receives what the successor had, in this case, the promise.
What is the promise?
The Lord said to Abram,
While Genesis does not say that God would make Abram great, but rather his name, let’s remember, a man’ s a name was his essence, his reputation, who he was.
In the Hebrew text, GREAT means to be LARGE in body, mind, estate or honor; to advance, exceed, increase, lift up, magnify, nourish, promote, and tower.
Those are some good words! Of course, I don’t have to tell you, that all of this is to be in the context of love, not lording it over others.
God would have us be free to fully embrace our greatness, through Him, rather than reject it. He has given you permission!
Agree with God this week. The first step in manifesting a truth, is to believe it is true and receive it for yourself.
