Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness
and tender mercies;

MESSAGE
God the Almighty is the source of greatness. To
achieve greatness, you should please God. However it is impossible to please
God without faith (Hebrews 11:6). Faith is therefore the master key to
greatness (Mark 11:22-24). Faith is built up by the constant hearing of God’s
word (Romans 10:17). Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, David, Jesus Christ and Paul all
had unshakeable faith in God on their way to greatness. Faith in God is the eternal
elixir which gives life, power and action to the impulse of thought. Faith in
God is the only known antidote for failure. Faith in God contains the seeds of
achievement and greatness. God has promised us greatness and His promises for
us are yea and Amen. Have faith and plug into this promise. Don’t quit even if
there are minor delays or you run into seasons of contradiction (Habakkuk
2:2-4). The just shall become great by his faith.
Having faith in God helps you not to consider the
weather or prevailing economy before you sow your seed or give to God
(Ecclesiastes 11:1-4). Fruitless people are stingy people. Stinginess,
especially with God can never lead to greatness. Patience is another ingredient
of greatness. This means waiting on the Lord for His time to come to pass.
Joseph waited for 13 years, Moses waited for 40 years while Jesus waited for 30
years. God has a reason for His timing. It might take long but it will surely
happen if God has ordained it (Hebrews 10:35-39). The time of waiting is a time
of preparation (2 Chronicles 27:6). Preparation precedes greatness. You don’t
become a boxing champion overnight, neither do you become an anointed great man
of God in one day. Greatness that comes suddenly or that is gotten by surprise
will be lost suddenly by surprise. Watch out for those who manipulate their way
into occupying an office, especially in the ministry of the gospel. If you
don’t wait for your time patiently, you might become great, but your crash from
greatness will equally be great. Greatness comes to people who maintain a good
attitude in the period of waiting. You must have an attitude that believes that
with God all things are possible. In addition, you should honour God.
Recognising the source of greatness helps you to get connected to its source.
All those who were divinely connected in the Bible ended up as great people.
Recognising the source of greatness helps you to tap into the covenant of
grace, wisdom, empowerment, humility and anointing for greatness (Genesis
41:16). Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Daniel, Jesus, Paul and all those who
recognized God as the Source of greatness and gave Him the glory ended up being
great. You can also do the same.

every provision in His plan for you to be great. Do not write yourself off.
