Greater Works

I am convinced that we have a more vivid and real faith in the past work of Christ than in His present work in our lives. We believe the Word, the parting of the Red Sea, the pillar of fire that led God's people toward the promised land. We believe God sent the fire to burn up Elijah's sacrifice on Mt. Carmel, we believe that Jesus caused the blind to see, the lame to walk, even that He raised Lazarus from the dead.

In John 14:12 Jesus said " Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he shall do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go to the Father."

Have you witnessed these greater works? Consider, Lazarus died again! Consider as believers in Jesus Christ we go from death to life, separate from God, spiritually dead to alive!  Not only a temporary life, but eternal life! Think about all the believers you know, the work that God did in them is greater than physically raising Lazarus from the dead. God has allowed us to experience great miracles. We are living in amazing times, pause today and be thankful. Jesus is in the Father, we are in Him and He is in us, John 14:20. Praise!!!
