God is not hesitant or indifferent when it comes to showing Himself strong. Rather, He is looking ‘throughout the whole earth’ for people who are loyal to Him so He can reveal His power through their lives! Here are three things you need to know about God: 1) He is always at work in supernatural ways in our world, and He has a lot He wants to accomplish. 2) He is actively searching for loyal partners – people who steadily care about what He cares about. 3) He is consistently nudging people to respond, but most people miss it or say no. Question: What would it look like in your life if you began to say yes? A minister writes: ‘A life marked by the miraculous is not just possible, not even just desirable, but is at the very centre of God’s will for every one of us. When we settle for less, our lives lose delight, fulfilment, and purpose. Personal needs of people we meet get overlooked. Extreme needs in our communities and around the world go unmet. When a whole generation settles for less, the character and motives of God get called into question. His shining presence seems to fade in the world.’ But you can do something about it. You were born to be God’s ambassador, making Him visible each day (see 2 Corinthians 5:20). God desires to show Himself strong in you, for you, and through you, because every person you encounter has a need that only God can meet.
