John 1 “Jesus found Philip and said to him, “Follow me.” 44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. 45 Philip found Nathanael and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses in the Law and also the prophets wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.” .
46 Nathanael said to him, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.” 47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said of him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no deceit!”
48 Nathanael said to Jesus, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” 49 Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi [Teacher], you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!”
50 Jesus answered him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you BELIEVE? You will see GREATER things than these.” 51 And he said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descendingon the Son of Man.”
“Greater” means “you will see” the promises of The Bible come true in your life “So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.” Romans 10:17
“Greater” is not about your dreams coming true. They are too small. It’s about the promises of God coming true.
“Greater” is not about your dreams coming true. They are too small. It’s about the promises of God coming true. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory [Ephesians 3:20]
Why is this important to you You are surrounded by a world where people don’t see the truth or speak the truth. God’s Word is the one word you need to focus on and live by everyday.
