Live Expansively

Apostle Grace Lubega

2 Corinthians 6:11-13 (MSG); Dear, dear Corinthians, I can’t tell you how much I long for you to enter this wide-open, spacious life. We didn’t fence you in. The smallness you feel comes from within you. Your lives aren’t small, but you’re living them in a small way. I’m speaking as plainly as I can and with great affection. Open up your lives. Live openly and expansively!

God has called us to a glorious life in Him and that life is lived from the inside out.

Many people are conscious of what is around them: the pain, the poverty, the strife, the heartache or the sickness.

Their worlds are narrowed to only what they can perceive through the physical senses.

The Bible says, “The smallness you feel comes from within you.”

But listen to the Father, child of faith!

He says, “Your Life is not small but you are living it in a small way.”

Look at what God has done. Understand that you have treasure in earthen vessels (2 Corinthians 4:7).

Understand the infallible truth that He has placed the world in your heart. (Ecclesiastes 3:11).

How you live WITHIN determines how you live WITHOUT.

Your Life is not small. Live EXPANSIVELY. Hallelujah!

PRAYER: My Great Lord I thank you. What a great truth to know that He who made the universe lives in me; He who framed the earth and gave the ocean its course has made my body His home. Heaven is your throne, earth is your footstool, you who dwells in the lofty place and inhabits eternity. You live in me. How can I be normal? How can I think small? How can I be intimidated by circumstances? No! I am great, I am big and I am doing things that put a dent in the universe. The world marvels at what comes out of me. This is the story of my life because the greater one lives in me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
