How Big Is Your God?

Psalm 2:8, “Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.”
Deuteronomy 1:11,” The LORD God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye are, and bless you, as he hath promised you!”
When we think small we get small. When we limit God we limit ourselves. The creator of the universe the maker of all things has infinite resources and nothing is too hard or too big that God cannot deal with or handle. Our natural thought process usually does not allow us to go beyond the natural boundary of logic and reason.
God is unlimited in His ability and resources and He has the desire to provide for and bless His children. How then do we limit almighty God? “O ye of little faith,” Jesus said. We think in the realm of the natural, God works in the realm of the supernatural. When we pray we ask for a dime when the Lord is holding a dollar. We ask for a sandwich when God has a banquet planned.
In 1 Chronicles 4:10 we find a man much like we yet he prayed a big prayer. Prayed a bold prayer and fully expected God to answer. Jabez prayed asking God to increase his coast and bless him indeed, to protect him from evil and God did.
Jesus told us if you have the faith as the grain of mustard seed you can move mountains. Do you want to move mountains or just kick rocks? In James 5:16 we are instructed, “The effectual fervent prayer of the righteous man availeth much.” Take a look at the differences between the righteous (right with God) man and the unrighteous (not right with God) man. They are totally different people with totally different outcomes in life even though they may occupy the same space on this earth they may work at the same job, partake of some of the same recreational activities, and even attend the same church. Look what it did not say, it did not mention being perfect. This righteous condition affects our prayer life. How do we get to be righteous? Forgive as we are forgiven, love your neighbor and you love yourself, and put God first in your life.
God is a big God and only wants what is best for Hid kids. God is only limited by our thinking. If mustard seed faith moves mountains just think what marble size faith would do. Jesus gave us the answer in Matthew 21:20-22, “And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away! Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”
How big is your God? He is only as big as you let Him be.
