He is Looking for the Least



 Mark 1:9

 The city of Nazareth was the kind of city which was regarded by many religious bigwigs as the very least on the religious radar of the New Testament times.

 It was regarded the very least because throughout its historical course nothing worthwhile ever emerged out of the very course of  history as regards to the city of Nazareth.

However the history of Nazareth is defied when it says in Mark 1:9, that Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and John Baptized him in the river Jordan.

Picture this, here is Jesus the greatest man ever to walk across the face of the earth and he comes from Nazareth the least city in the entire Nation.

Consequently it’s here and now that we understand that greatness always emerges from the least expected localities.

The least have the propensity to bring forth the greatest God-experience to be witnessed in the earth.

Henceforth God is looking for the least of the 21st century because he understands that in the very least of the 21st century there is a level of God –greatness never witnessed on the earth of the earth.

God never looks for what he can’t find because by the time God decides to look for something he knows where to find it because whatever God is looking for was laid in the least by God even before the foundation of the earth.

In other wards God is looking for the least because he laid up something in their being that is going to shift the entire universe into an intimate place in God that the universe has never been.

God has looked at the least of the 21st century and stretched forth his hand upon the least of the 21st century so that no trouble and danger will be able to penetrate in order to get to them.

There is God greatness laid –up in your being and its pivotal for God’s hand to be on your life so that no enemy will stretch forth his hand to destroy you.

The reason why you are surrounded by a multitude of enemies, haters and saboteurs and none of them has been able to destroy you is because the hand of God is looking out for you.

The hand of God is looking out for you even though it seems to be that you are the very least upon the face of the earth.

Once the hand of God is over your life and looking out for you, many times than not the people who are supposed to support you will turn to sabotage you.

They will turn to sabotage you because they can notice and feel that the hand of God is over your life.

The hand of God is a metaphor for the grace, the favor, and the spiritual gift of God, the mercy, and the revelation of God.

When the hand of God is on your life the people who are supposed to love you will join the club of your haters because they can feel the enveloping presence of God upon your life that is a far-reach for them.

 Jesus reinforced in the argument among the disciples on the topic of who was going to be the greatest among them by earmarking that the greatest among then was going to be the least.

In other wards greatness always emerges from the least.

 Thus if you have been feeling least lately it’s only because God has chosen you for greatness.

And God is looking for you to use you as his witness on the face of the earth.
