ABOVE ALL
*WISDOM FOR TODAY.*
*ABOVE ALL.*
*Scripture Treasure.*
1 John 4:4 *Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.*
*Insight and Highlight.*
He who is greater in you is above all and can make you above all, John 3:31.
Eph 4:6 *One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.*
*Scripture Commentaries.*
The One who is in you brings out the greater you.
God is incomparably great, Is 40:25
*To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One.*
He is God beyond compare.
John says in 1 John 4:4 *"...greater is he that is in you,..."*. From John's writing, we can by due exaltation and honor to God declare God is greater than all existing and non existing, living and non living, existing or yet to exist human, substance, principalities and power etc. He is above all, John 1:5, Col 1:17.
As great as God is, He has limited Himself to releasing greatness to us.
He says in John 14:12 *Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.*
There is a potential in you to be great.
There is One in you who says He can make a greater you through the works that you do.
So there is a potential to do greater works than Jesus had done, Heb 1:9.
If Jesus says you can do greater works, it means the seed and potential to be great is in you, if you do not limit yourself.
You can be above all.
*Remorse corner.*
If God has not limited you, then you can be greater than you think. You can be above all.
*Call to Word action.*
You are nothing by yourself until Christ is in you to do greater works, Phlp 4:13.
Christ in you brings out a greater you!
*The Christian clarion duty*.
The key to becoming great is service in the Lord's vineyard, Matt 19:29, John 14:42.
It is the only thing in life that has eternal values. You can be both rich here and still reap eternity with God, if you are rich unto God, ref Luke 12:21.
A life of riches, honor, royalty without God are limited to this world. They will be forgotten when death comes calling, 1 Tim 6:7.
*Prayer.*
Heb 1: 9 *Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.*
Lord, anoint me to be above all, in Jesus name.
Good morning and welcome to November, our month of *ABOVE ALL.*
Greater you this month, in Jesus name.
Be blessed as you go today.
God bless you.
