Do not despise these small beginnings, for the LORD rejoices to see the work begin. —Zechariah 4:10 NLT
The apostle Paul discovered on the road to Damascus that God had a plan for his life, one that he had never considered.
Paul truly met the God of the impossible—the One who was born as a baby, lived as a man, suffered death on the Cross as the Lamb of God, rose again the third day and now sits at the right hand of the Father, making intercession for His beloved children.
The impossible often begins with one small step. When God wanted to create Adam, He began with a handful of dust. Moses was sent to challenge Pharaoh with a walking stick; Samson killed thousands of Philistines with the jawbone of a donkey (see Judges 15); Jesus fed the multitudes with a couple of fish and five loaves of bread. When He sent David to conquer a giant, the shepherd didn’t take a cannon; he picked up five small stones. When God sent His Son to earth, He wasn’t sent to a metropolis, but to the small, backwater hamlet of Bethlehem.
Do you think your ideas are too small to succeed? Give them to God and let Him anoint you for the impossible!
