Expect Great Things from A Great God

eDevotion

Encouragement for your daily walk with God

A philosopher in the court of Alexander the Great was a man of outstanding ability, but little means. One day he asked Alexander for financial help and was told to draw whatever he needed from the imperial treasury. So, the philosopher made his request - $50,000! Alexander’s treasurer refused to authorize the large sum saying he needed verification from Alexander. When he asked Alexander, the ruler replied, "Pay the money at once. The philosopher has done me a singular honor. By the largeness of his request he shows that he has understood both my wealth and generosity."

Could it be that we honor the Lord when we humbly come to Him and ask for great things? Let’s do it, shall we? Let’s ask, then believe God for great things. He has the answer in store!

Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds. Psalms 36:5
