What does it mean to be greater? 1 John 4:4 tells us that we are greater when Jesus is within us. Therefore, to have Jesus within us means that we are greater which means that we are greater than great. Often as Christians, we forget that we are greater, we forget because this world can beat us down, we forget because we fail to spend time in the word, we forget because we become disillusioned by preachers who lie, cheat and steal. We forget because the devil is working all kinds of schemes to make it easy to forget that we are greater. For we are greater not for anything that we have done, rather we are greater for what we have become. And what we have become is a disciple of Jesus.
So, in the midst of a pandemic where sickness, silliness, and death are all around it is time for us to take up the blood-stained banner of the Jesus that is in all of us to be greater.
