SONGS I LIKE - 35 (GREATER IS THE ONE LIVING INSIDE OF ME)
Bring your tired
And bring your shame
Bring your guilt
And bring your pain
Don't you know that's not you're name
You will always be much more to me
And bring your shame
Bring your guilt
And bring your pain
Don't you know that's not you're name
You will always be much more to me
Every day I wrestle with the
voices
That keep telling me I'm not right
But that's alright
That keep telling me I'm not right
But that's alright
'Cause I hear a voice and He
calls me redeemed
When others say I'll never be enough
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
In the world
In the world
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
When others say I'll never be enough
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
In the world
In the world
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
Bring your doubts
And bring your fears
Bring your hurt
And bring your tears
There'll be no condemnation here
You are holy, righteous and redeemed
And bring your fears
Bring your hurt
And bring your tears
There'll be no condemnation here
You are holy, righteous and redeemed
Every time I fall
There'll be those who will call me
A mistake
Well that's OK
There'll be those who will call me
A mistake
Well that's OK
'Cause I hear a voice and He
calls me redeemed
When others say I'll never be enough
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
In the world
In the world
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
When others say I'll never be enough
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
In the world
In the world
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
There'll be days I lose the
battle
Grace says that it doesn't matter
'Cause the cross already won the war
He's Greater, He's Greater
Grace says that it doesn't matter
'Cause the cross already won the war
He's Greater, He's Greater
I am learning to run freely
Understanding just how He sees me
And it makes me love Him more and more
He's Greater, He's Greater
Understanding just how He sees me
And it makes me love Him more and more
He's Greater, He's Greater
'Cause I hear a voice and He
calls me redeemed
When others say I'll never be enough
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
In the world
In the world
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
When others say I'll never be enough
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
In the world
In the world
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world

GOD WILL FULFILL ALL THOSE THINGS THAT HE HAS PROMISED YOU
“Blessed is
she who believed, for there will be a fulfilment of those things which were
told her from the Lord.” – Luke 1:45
In 2 Kings 6:24 we
read that Ben-Hadad king of Syria gathered all his army and went up and
besieged Samaria. So there was a great famine in Samaria. Days got so worse
that a lady came to the king saying that she had eaten her son along with another
woman.
With so much anger the
King had sent a man to Elisha to ask him why he has to wait for the Lord in
such kind of adverse situation. The king had lost all his hope. At that time
God’s word came through Elisha saying “‘Tomorrow about this time a seah of fine
flour shall be sold for a
shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, at the gate of Samaria.’” (2 Kings 7:1)
There was an officer
who was standing nearby heard what God said and answered Elisha that it will
not be possible even if God make windows in heaven. He could not believe the
word of God.
But as we read further
we can understand that the very next day the Lord has caused the army of the
Syrians to hear the noise of chariots, horses and great army so that they had
fled immediately.
Within a day God had
changed the situation upside down as He had promised through Elisha. The
officer who doubted God’s word saw the fulfilment of that but yet he died
without enjoying the blessing that God has provided.
The people of Samaria
went out and plundered the tents of Syrians. Everyone in Samaria saw the
fulfilment of God’s word.
My eldest brother
could not get a job when he completed his engineering degree long back. The
first job he got was for a salary of Rs.2000 per month. He struggled a lot with
that salary but yet he had kept his trust upon God. My parents prayed a lot and
God promised that He will raise him up to higher positions. When he heard that
it was far beyond his understanding.
After few years God
gave him a job in another city. My brother got a good salary this time and he
was so happy about it. One day God spoke to him through a servant of God that
He will increase his salary double fold. As my brother was getting a good
salary which was enough for him and his family he was happy about his life but
as God promised He gave him a job in a big company and now he was getting a
salary exactly double the salary he got from his previous job.
My dear young friends,
you might be going through poverty or famine of troubled situation. Have faith
in the promise given by God to Him. Jesus Christ will fulfil all that He has
promised you. The people of Samaria thought that they will not live for another
day. But God promised them that He will change the situation and they will
live. Indeed God fulfilled His promise the very next day. He will do that in
your life. You will be blessed as God promised to you. Do not get discouraged
about your present life situation.
He might have promised
so many things to you in the beginning of this year but till now you might not
have seen any signs of fulfilment. Do not fear. He who has promised you will
definitely fulfil His promises in your life. Jesus Christ will fight for you
and He will bless you richly. You will see the fulfilment of God’s promises in
your life and you will enjoy the blessings that He is going to give you.
