God is Underestimated
I came across this statement recently and I found it very intriguing and challenging for me personally. Do I live a life that under estimates the God I serve? I have read about and studied about God for many years. I have read the stories in the Bible about God parting the seas rising the dead making the blind see and the lame walk. I’ve read the stories.
I have met powerful men of faith and set under their teachings about God. People like John MacArthur, Craig Groeschel, Franklin Graham, Henry Blackeby, Rick Warren, and Dallas Willard…the list goes on. I have traveled internationally and preached about Jesus and His great love. I have preached at stadiums containing thousands of people declaring the truth of God‘s word and proclaiming the power of God. I have taught in seminary‘s around the world. I have spoken to people and people groups that have never heard there was a God.
I have a personal relationship with God. I know that He has forgiven me of my sins. I know that I will spend eternity with Him. I have experienced His power in my life. I have personally witnessed God do miracles.
Yet the statement “God is underestimated“ really rocks me. This statement forces me to ask myself the question, Do I underestimate the:
Love of God?
Power of God?
Holiness of God?
So what is my response to the statement “God is underestimated“? I have to say yes, I agree God is underestimated! By me and basically everyone around me.
My prayer is that my faith will grow and I will stop underestimating the amazing, powerful, sovereign, and a holy God that I serve. Make it so Lord Jesus.
