John 8:53 (NKJV) Are You greater than our father Abraham…Who do You make Yourself out to be?
Is Jesus greater than _______? (You fill in the blank.)
Yes, yes He is.
Oh how prone we are to be practicing atheist (doubting God’s ability when new challenges and fears arise).
Oh how prone we are at becoming polytheist (more than one god), allowing other things to compete with our loyalty to Jesus Christ.
But dear friend, this is just a reminder: Jesus is greater than any new trouble that has recently arisen in your life.
And Jesus is still the one and only source of true joy, peace, and life \\ nothing or no one even comes remotely close.
- The ONE THING for today: Do not allow lesser things (good or bad) to take your attention and loyalty away from the supreme pursuit of life—gaining Jesus Christ.
Philippians 3:8 (NKJV)
8 Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ
