It’s our time to do Greater Things than these!

Jesus told us it would happen and it is!  So we could actual say the best is yet to come.

Saved ✝️ GRACE

Satan has probably had time to study mankind deciding when someone stands against him just ignore stare back and the believers will usually give up quickly.

We need a reputation of standing in the spirit world, our prayers will get us quicker results.  

Faith, is what you are willing to declare, believe for and courage not to run from. Faith is not a mysterious or unattainable thing that has to be found by our good works but by by His.  
So how can we measure our faith?  Here’s how to get a very close measurement. 

Your faith is a little bigger than the last thing you beat and your faith is little smaller than the last thing that beat your faith.  

Strong faith is a continuation of standing.  

Faith is not quantity but quality, the ability to keep going when everything says quit.

Romans 12:3.....God hath dealt to every man the measureof faith.

1. measure, an instrument for measuring
1. a vessel for receiving and determining the quantity of things, whether dry or liquid
2. a graduated staff for measuring, a measuring rod
3. proverbially, the rule or standard of judgment
2. determined extent, portion measured off, measure or limit
1. the required measure, the due, fit, measure

God gives us enough faith to get everything done.

Heel-Grabber

The birth of Isaac's twins was ominous. Jacob came from the womb grabbing the heel of the firstborn, Esau. Jacob's name means "supplanter: one who usurps or takes the place of another." In time, Jacob did supplant Esau, buying his birthright for a bowl of beans, then tricking his father to lay hands on him for the family blessing. His strong desire for the birthright, which included God's Covenants with Abraham and Isaac, impressed God despite his unscrupulous methods. 

Romans 9:13 - "As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated." 

A Bowl Of Beans

Look at the modern State of Israel. Then contemplate its 3,600-year history. Scores of large cities. Scores of great kings. Millions of people. The overall impact of Israel on the world stage is inestimable. Great scientists, inventors, financiers, artists, musicians, politicians, etc. Jews have played a major role in nearly every nation on earth. And Esau gave it all up for a bowl of beans. 

Genesis 25:34 - "Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright." 

Go Not Down To Egypt

Everybody knows about God's promises to Abraham to bless and multiply his seed and inherit the Promised Land. But God made important prerequisites to those prophecies. Isaac must OBEY His commandments, statutes and laws, AND he must NOT go down to Egypt. He must trust God during famine in the land. Likewise, WE must obey God and be in His chosen place before we can claim His promises. 

Genesis 26:2 - "...the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of." 

Isaac

Isaac inherited Abraham's divine Covenant blessings. His mother was barren until the age of 90. God used that to prove the power of the Covenant. Isaac's life appears to be relatively non-eventful when compared to many other great characters in the Bible. But his significance cannot be overstated. Totally dismissing Ishmael, God called Isaac Abraham's "ONLY SON." 

Genesis 26:3 - "I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father."

Eliezer's Prayer

Abraham's servant was charged with finding a wife for Isaac, and he worried what the consequences would be if he could not find her. He asked God to prosper his mission, even specifying the terms. Amazingly, God did exactly as he asked. At the well, the perfect girl was waiting. 

Genesis 24:42-44 - "I came this day unto the well, and said, O LORD God of my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go: ...let the same be the woman whom the LORD hath appointed out for my master's son." 

Eliezer

Abraham sent his eldest servant (presumably his steward, Eliezer) to find a wife for Isaac in the homeland of his grandfather Nahor in Mesopotamia. At one time, Eliezer had been the heir to Abraham's wealth, but after Isaac was born, that changed. Nevertheless, Eliezer was privileged to see God working miraculously for his master. I am thinking of the Prodigal Son who said, "How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare." Any place in God's service is good. 

Genesis 15:2 - "...the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus." 

Two Nations - Twins!

A major prophecy seemed in jeopardy of failing. Isaac's wife, Rebekah, was barren! But suddenly, God provided - TWINS! Even before they were born, God foretold their future. The elder would serve the younger. Hundreds of years later, under King David, Esau's Edomites were conquered by Jacob's Israel (2 Samuel 8:14). 

Genesis 25:23 - "...the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger." 

Sell Me Thy Birthright

Maybe this doesn't look like a prophecy, but think about it. Esau sold his birthright to Jacob for a bowl of beans. Obviously, Esau did not comprehend the true value of his birthright. We are talking about divine posterity - something only Almighty God can assure. Let Esau's descendants rage! Jacob owns the blessing outright. A deal is a deal. Isaac laid his hand on Jacob and transferred it to him irrevocably. 

Genesis 25:33 - "And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob." 

Have you ever felt like you need to have a prayer that touches heaven?
