The Year Of RevivalSample

It is about the greatness of God, not the significance of man. God made man small and the universe big to say something about himself.

― John Piper

I recently saw an Instagram post from a friend of mine who was visiting Alaska. Now this friend isn’t remotely following Jesus. He is actually about as far from a Christian as I can imagine. But he said in this particular post that seeing the vastness of the wilderness in Alaska made him feel an overwhelming sense of his utter smallness. I believe the vastness of creation gives even the most ardent non-believer an unavoidable glimpse of God’s unmatched grandeur.

Jesus has been given a throne of exaltation over all of creation. His creation and kingdom are unfathomable. 

I believe the fruit of true revival will be people talking about Jesus—not revival. True revival results in the exaltation of the Gospel-Author over the eloquence of the gospel-presenter.

Pray for a revelation of the greatness of God. Pray for an awakening among his church to the awe-inspiring greatness of our creator.
