Jeremiah 33:3

Jeremiah 33:3
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

God is full of power and greatness!  Just look around at His creation!  The soft clouds float by on a bright blue canvas; the shining diamonds are spread out so perfectly in the navy blue sky, each leaf on every tree placed by God Himself with only speaking a word.

We should not doubt the greatness of our God or the wonderful works of His wondrous hands.  After all, not a cloud goes by that God does not form and a leaf that does not fall without God’s knowledge of it.  Every star has been counted and named by God.  Psalm 147:4 “He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.”

Isaiah 40:26 “Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringesth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth.”

Isaiah 40:28 “Hast thou not known? Hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? There is no searching of his understanding.”

Our God indeed is great!!!  Sometimes, we just need to stop and be in awe of Him!  Just think, the Creator of all, the One who holds every drop of water in His hand, loves me!  He wants the best for me, He cares for me.  Dare I say “no” to Him?

He wants to show us “great and mighty things” but we must first call to Him!  He says that He WILL answer us, but we have to call to Him!  He desires to show us how He can work through us, He longs to bless us, He yearns to have fellowship with us, but we must FIRST call unto Him!

Moses, in Exodus chapter 33 calls out to God pleading to know Him.  Verse 13 says, “Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now they way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people.”  Moses was asking to be shown the way so that He may know Christ.  Verse 17 of the same chapter is God responding to Moses: “And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name.”  God KNOWS us by name!!!

All the best that God wants for us is at our fingertips, all we have to do is call to Him and ask Him!  Do we not trust God enough?  We KNOW He is great, we KNOW He is powerful, we KNOW He wants what is best for us…but “knowing” gets us nowhere!  Do something about it and call to Him so that you can experience Him!

Do I really long to know God?  He longs to know me and spend time with me…He LOVES me.  But do I love Him enough to want to spend time with Him?  Do I have that burning desire to really KNOW God?  Call to Him, He will answer and show us great and mighty things.

Psalm 63:1-2 “Oh God, thou art my God: early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.”
