God is Big, Now Start Acting Like it 08 Jesus is Lord Now Act Like It!
It amazes me over and over how some Christians are so casual about the commands of Jesus. They will openly say “I will do A, B, C for God, but not D”. Their attendance at church is erratic, and pretty much anything can stop them going to church (“it’s raining”, “a friend came over”, “I was tired”Continue reading “God is Big, Now Start Acting Like it 08 Jesus is Lord Now Act Like It!”
God is Big, Now Start Acting Like it 07 Don’t Expect Extras!
Hold on, you might be thinking, what do I mean when I say “don’t expect extras?!”. Surely God will do MORE than we ask or imagine. He is an extravagant God. He is the God of more than enough.

God is Big, Now Start Acting Like it 06 Don’t Put God in a Box

God is Big, Now Start Acting Like it 04 Only Believe!
Smith Wigglesworth would get the congregations he was preaching at to sing over and over two simple words “only believe” . Only believe! Jesus once opened His mouth and deliberately and carefully said: “all things are possible, if we believe”. That’s not a whimsical statement, Jesus is not whimsical. It’s truth.

God is big, and wonderful, and glorious and everything God does is big, wonderful and glorious, and God made you, so you have value.

God is Big, Now Start Acting Like It 01 Get Out of the Wilderness
The fact that most Christians are living in the wilderness with Moses rather than a land flowing with milk and honey, and enjoying all of God’s promises with Joshua has become a cliche, but that does not stop it being true. Most Christians are thankfully not in a literal wilderness walking around in circles gettingContinue reading “God is Big, Now Start Acting Like It 01 Get Out of the Wilderness”
