IS HE MAGNIFIED?

IS HE MAGNIFIED THROUGH YOU?

DO WE SEE MORE OF YOU OR DO WE SEE MORE OF JESUS?

When we talk about magnifying the Lord we usually think of lifting our hands in song and singing together in praise and worship.

You know, Magnify the Lord With Me...

My question is, are you afraid or opposed to really magnifying God in front of folks?
I don't mean breaking out into choir rehearsal, I'm talking about integrity and the courage to do what is right everywhere with anybody?

If we deny Jesus before men with our conversation which is our lifestyle, know that Jesus has said that He will deny us before The Father.

Don't get into the habit of keeping God in a box, God is not a genie in a bottle and we are not Aladdin.

How would you feel if your children never acknowledged that you even existed?
You took care of them well all of their lives, provided food, shelter , clothing, love, support, and even extra things when they did not deserve it.

They lived in your house and when they were sick you nursed them back to health.

Whenever they needed anything you got it, you gave them instruction and they never took it and when ever they got into trouble you came and got them out of it, forgiving them and helping them to get back on their feet.

They never thanked you, they never acknowledged that it was you who cosigned for their home and car and paid for their college education.
When they have a working spouse but they still have to depend on you.

Never acknowledged it's you who are helping raise those grand kids whose baby daddy is not around.

Never thanked you for getting them a job in your company because they are lazy and shiftless and no one else on the planet would hire them with that poor work ethic.

They just pull you out when they need you and don't want your guidance, advice or opinion about anything, they just want you to pull them out and keep your mouth shut.

Well God is not your parents.

We don't pull Him out for three wishes when we are in trouble and then put Him back in the bottle and then go back to living like a hellion.

God is too great and mighty to be shoved into a bottle and cracked open only in an emergency.

Don't wait until you are on your deathbed or in trouble to magnify the Lord.

Magnify The Lord Today.

Psalm 34
