“Thou shalt see greater things than
these”
John 1:50
ALWAYS GROWING
This is spoken to a childlike
believer, who was ready to accept Jesus as the Son of
God, the King of Israel, upon one convincing piece of
argument Those who are willing to see shall see: it is
because we shut our eyes that we become so sadly blind.
We have seen much already. Great things and unsearchable
has the Lord showed unto us, for which we praise His
name; but there are greater truths in His Word, greater
depths of experience, greater heights of fellowship,
greater works of usefulness, greater discoveries of
power, and love, and wisdom. These we are yet to see if
we are willing to believe our Lord. The faculty of
inventing false doctrine is ruinous, but power to see
the truth is a blessing.
Heaven shall be opened to us, the way thither shall be
made clear to us in the Son of man, and the angelic
commerce which goes on between the upper and the lower
kingdoms shall be made more manifest to us. Let us keep
our eyes open toward spiritual objects, and expect to
see more and more.
Let us believe that our lives will not drivel down into
nothing, but that we shall be always on the growing
hand, seeing greater and still greater things, till we
behold the Great God himself, and never again lose the
sight of Him.
