 “These servants of the Lord did not sit on their laurels and become rotting relics. These early disciples followed their Lord’s command and did great exploits for their King as servants of all.”

Daniel 11:32
…but the people who know their God shall be strong and carry out great exploits.

The great violinist, Nicolo Paganini, willed his marvellous violin to Genoa –  the city of his birth – but only on condition that the instrument never be played again. It was an unfortunate condition, for it is a peculiarity of wood that if it is used and handled, it shows little wear. As soon as it is discarded, it can become infested and begin to decay. The exquisite violin became worm-eaten in its beautiful case, valueless except as a relic. The rotting instrument is a reminder that a life withdrawn from all service to others loses its meaning.

Jesus reminds us that if we desire to be great in the kingdom of God, we need to be prepared to be servants. A servant is someone who expresses submission and duty to serve another person, to his credit and wellbeing. Jesus is our Lord and we are his servants. In Christ, we serve one another as a duty of our service of him. As much as we love our Lord, we love those whom he places on our track of life, to serve.

When we examine the lives of those to whom Jesus gave the instruction to be servants, we note that they all progressed to become great people of influence whose lives and service still impact our lives today. In their humble service, they carried out great exploits. Jesus did say, “He who is greatest among you shall be your servant.” These servants of the Lord did not sit on their laurels and become rotting relics. These early disciples followed their Lord’s command and did great exploits for their King as servants of all.

God-tracking is performing great exploits with a servant heart.

“I know, in you, I will do great exploits for my King with heart of a servant.”

“Dear Lord Jesus, thank you that you came to be a servant of God and give your life for me. Dear Lord, forgive me for any pride or arrogance in my heart. I choose now to humble myself before you and my fellow man, to be a servant of all. I know, in you, I will do great exploits for my King with heart of a servant. Amen.”

“Smith Wigglesworth understood his position in Christ. He knew who was on his side (on his inside) and that if God was for him, none could be against him.”

1 John 4:4
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

Smith Wigglesworth was a great man of God who knew who he was in Christ. There’s a story told of
how, one night, he was awakened from sleep by a commotion in his bedroom. Half sitting up, he peered into the darkness only to be confronted by an awesome sight of a manifest evil spirit – a demon – sitting at the bottom of his bed. Satan knew this man. He knew he was being used mightily by God in signs and wonders, turning thousands of people to God, seeking his forgiveness and purposes in their lives.  Satan was intent on de-railing Smith through fear and intimidation. The story goes on to state that Smith Wigglesworth took one look at this manifest evil demon and said, “Oh, it’s only you,” and turned over going back to sleep! 

Wigglesworth said many great things in his lifetime but among the best quotations recorded by the man is this: “I’m a thousand times bigger on the inside than I am on the outside.”  He knew the meaning of the words, “You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.” Smith Wigglesworth understood his position in Christ. He knew who was on his side (or on his inside) and that if God was for him, none could be against him.

Are you facing demons right now; trials and difficulties that fill you with fear?  Are you feeling small and insignificant against the mountains you face tomorrow? If that’s you then be encouraged to turn to the Creator and Author of your life – your Lord and God –  and, through Jesus Christ, claim that you too are a thousand times bigger on the inside than you are on the outside!

God-tracking is knowing who you are in Christ.

Don’t Give Up, Look Up & Pray

“Therefore, in the name of Jesus, I take a stand against these attacks of Satan and confess that I am bigger on the inside than I am on the outside.”

“Dear God, I’ll admit that I am intimidated by the trials I face today. It seems like every step I take I’m confronted by opposition. Forgive me, O Lord, for not taking a stand against the enemy of my soul. I have accepted Jesus as my Lord and Saviour and believe that he dwells in my heart by the Holy Spirit. Therefore, in the name of Jesus, I take a stand against these attacks of Satan and confess that I am bigger on the inside than I am on the outside. Amen.”
