I was thinking of the song we sing during our fellowships, "We've Great Big Wonderful God," and how true that is. GOD has done so much for us, and yet so many times we don't appreciate HIM because we aren't manifesting the full life HE has given us to live in Christ Jesus.

Romans 8:2
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus, hath made us free from the law of sin and death.

  We've been set free from the law of sin and death, we have new life in Christ Jesus, yet Christians tend to live far below par of what GOD intended. Christians allow the world to dictate how they are to think and feel rather than what the truth of GOD'S Word declares. The greatest thing the world promotes and dictates is to be afraid, to walk in fear, while The Word of GOD declares we are to walk in LOVE, POWER, and with a SOUND MIND. When are Christians who profess to be believers going to really believe what GOD says in HIS Word rather than become fearful of what the world says. The answer to this question is in;

I Corinthians 4:4
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of GOD, should shine unto them.

  The answer is ... Unbelief! It all goes back to, doubt, worry, and FEAR, issuing in UNBELIEF. If this is our problem, then we need to start loving our "Great Big Wonderful GOD" bigger. Spend more time reading HIS Word than newspapers, the internet, books and magazine articles by the worlds so called experts. Perfect Love casteth out fear. While faith cometh by hearing the Word of GOD. When we believe HIS Word we can walk in the freedom of the Spirit that is in Christ Jesus.

   We need not be afraid.

Isaiah 54:14-15
In righteousness you will be established: Tyranny will be far from you; You will have nothing to fear.
¹⁵ If anyone does attack you, it will not be MY doing; whoever attacks you will surrender to you.

Psalm 118:6
The LORD is on my side; I WILL NOT FEAR: what can man do unto me?

  I WILL, is the strongest language in the English language. WHAT IS YOUR WILL? With GOD on our side, we always out number our enemy, we cannot lose if we believe HIM.

   In II Kings 6 is the record of the Syrianarmy surrounding the city where the prophet Elisha was staying. The king of Syria wanted Elisha out of his hair because he would tell the army of Israel where Syria was going to attack. So the king of Syria sent his army against Elisha. When Elisha's young servant had risen early and gone outside he saw the city surrounded. He went to Elisha and asked him. What shall We Do? Elisha said, "Fear Not!." Elisha prayed to GOD to open the eyes of his servant, and the servant saw the mountains full of GOD'S support of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. Elisha prevailed because he believed GOD. We must open our eyes to GOD'S Word and see. YES, Folks We Do Have, "A Great Big Wonderful GOD." Let's live like it!
