God’s House: The Rendezvous for Producing Greatness – Apostle Joseph Ziba
The Lord says, “Bethlehem Ephrathah, you are one of the smallest towns in Judah, but out of you I will bring a ruler for Israel, whose family line goes back to ancient times.” Micah 5: 2 GNT
As the new year commences, many people make resolutions to be and do great in their plans. They devise many ways of achieving such greatness. That’s very good. But one of the simplest ways in which you can become and hence do great in life is by frequenting yourself in the house of God— the church— to hear God’s word.
The opening Scripture above says that out of Bethlehem shall come forth a ruler (a great man) of Israel. Biblical history has it that many great people were born in Bethlehem or at least made their abode there. For instance, Jesus Christ, King David, King Solomon et cetera. (see 2 Samuel 5:9 and Luke 2:4). Bethlehem was such a prophetic place.
The word “Bethlehem” comes from a compound of two Hebrew words which means the “house of bread”. The bread signifies God’s Word. Thus according to God, the house of bread (Bethlehem) was designed to produce rulers and great people.
In the New Testament, Bethlehem is the church— the House of God— where the truth (bread) of God is ministered (1 Timothy 3:15).
Therefore, if you desire to be great make it a point this year not to miss church services. Go and feed on God’s word in the house of bread. It will produce a greater you.
PRAYER
Heavenly Father, I appreciate for the light from your word. I’ve seen that pursuing your house where your truth is ministered is the secret to my greatness. I, therefore, will be glad and will never miss church services this year. King David’s confession will be my song this year “I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.” In the Mighty name of Jesus, Amen.
