Audio Version
John 14:12 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”
Jesus made a profound statement in our opening scripture that challenges every believer to elevate their expectations. Throughout His earthly ministry, He healed the sick, raised the dead, calmed storms, and transformed lives. Yet, He assured His followers that they were destined for even greater exploits. This promise is not limited to a select few; it is for every believer who dares to take God at His word (Mark 9:23).
The key to walking in greatness is faith. It is not enough to admire the works of Jesus; you must believe that you are called to continue them. The apostles, though ordinary men, demonstrated extraordinary power because they took Jesus’ words seriously. Peter’s shadow healed the sick (Acts 5:15), and Paul’s handkerchiefs cast out demons (Acts 19:11-12). These were men who believed in the promise of greater works. In your career, business, and daily life, God wants you to operate beyond natural limitations.
So, rise in faith today! Speak and act with the confidence that you are designed for greatness. As you yield to the Holy Spirit, your heart will be filled with the passion and determination to achieve great things. Hallelujah!

PRAYER FOR A NATION
CONGO
The majority of Congolese identify as Christian, but most do not authentically claim Christ as the only means of salvation. Many hold a superficial belief in basic Christian ideas combined with animistic rituals and idols. The Marxist government (1968-1991) expelled most mission organizations and reared a generation of children disconnected from any form of spiritual life. False beliefs and practices are rampant within the Church. There is great need for Bible-believing pastors to disciple their congregation.
