How Big Is Your God?

Does God change His size for you? Of course not, but your perception of Him changes. David said in Psalms 34:3 "Oh, magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together." What does it mean to "Magnify".  It means to enlarge in appearance.  The object never changed it's size, but the magnifier enlarged it!  God's person, presence and power will increase within you with praise!  I did seminars on stress years ago as I headed up a large single's ministry in Denver, Colorado with my fellow leader, Charles Jones. What is stress?  It is a perception that your problem is larger than your resource.  For example, if you have a house payment of $1,000 and you only have $500.00 to pay, you have a stress factor over 50%.  But if you have over a million dollars in the bank, your stress factor goes way down to zero! In fact, you probably won't even pay attention to the payment. Life is full of problems creating stress at every level. We are constantly evaluating our resources against those problems.  David came up with a real solution.  If God is your source, and I trust He is, you can change your perception of HIS ABILITY to take care of it. David said the best way to do that is to start praising Him....magnifying His ability, exalting His name. By the way, the names of Jehovah exemplify His nature and ability.  Declare His name over the situation.  Some of the names of Jehovah are, "God our healer", "God our Provider", "God our peace", etc.  Your "spirit man" will begin to affect your natural man of emotions, will, conscience, imagination.  And even your 5 natural senses of your body will begin to relax and change. Stop today and begin taking a few moments to "Magnify" the Lord! Your perception of God's ability to meet your need will begin to be enlarged to the degree that the stress factor will go to zero!  One of my favorite verses in the bible is II Corinthians 9:8 "God is able to make all grace abound, that having all sufficiency in all things, you may have an abundance for every good work."  Notice it is based on God's ability... and His ability is limitless...but you must access it by faith.  Please SUBSCRIBE to my Youtube channel and you will begin getting daily SHORT, CONCISE VIDEO REVELATIONS OF CHRIST.  Called the "Magnificent Christ".  Because we are "Magnifying" your capacity to see Jesus!  The video below is exactly the kind of daily "Magnification" of Christ you will see!
