God can do great things through one person

or a group that is devoted to Him.

Read the following verses.  Think and pray about the verse that applies the most to your life.

 2 Chronicles 16:9 The eyes of the Lord search back and forth across the whole earth, looking for people whose hearts are perfect toward him, so that he can show his great power in helping them.

1 Samuel 14:6-13 “Let’s go across to see those pagans,” Jonathan said to his armor bearer. “ The LORD will help us, for nothing can hinder the LORD. He can win a battle whether he has many warriors or only a few!” …So they climbed up using both hands and feet, and the Philistines fell back as Jonathan and his armor bearer killed them right and left.

Judges 7:7 The LORD said to Gideon, “With the three hundred men that lapped I will save you and give the (120,000) Midianites into your hands.”

2 Chronicles 14:9,11 Zerah marched out against (God’s people) with a vast army…Then Asa called to the LORD his God and said, “LORD, there is no one like you to help the powerless against the mighty. Help us, O LORD our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this vast army. O LORD, you are our God; do not let man prevail against you.”… (and) The LORD struck down the Cushites.

Zech 4:6 “Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,” says the LORD Almighty.

1 Samuel 17:45-47 David shouted (to Goliath), “You come to me with sword, spear, and javelin, but I come to you in the name of the LORD Almighty, whom you have defied. Today the LORD will conquer you, and I will kill you and cut off your head….And everyone will know that the LORD does not need weapons to rescue his people. It is his battle, not ours. The LORD will give you to us!”

Expect great things from God.

Attempt great things for God.

God’s Sword For Fighting

The Dragon Of Materialism

My friend Don was a wealthy businessman and a very generous person. One day I asked Don, “Why are you so generous to the LORD’s work?” He said, “It helps me slay the dragon.” I asked, “What dragon?” He said, "In America the dragon of materialism breathes down our necks everyday. The fiery message from this dragon is that we cannot be content unless we keep spending more and more money on the latest, greatest, newest, and shiniest stuff." Don said, "The only way he knew how to fight this dragon was to be a faithful and generous giver. Every time he took out his pen to write out a check to the LORD's work, it was like taking a sword and telling the dragon to back off. Don used his giving to tell the dragon that he belonged to God and that everything he had came from God.
