  • Zechariah 4:10 KJV

  • For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth.

Have you ever prayed for something big?

Something you felt was beyond your abilities?

Most times we pray and ask God for certain things expecting God to answer us exactly the way we want it, most of the times our request are actually answered but not in the way we expect or in little ways, therefore we do not notice the little blessings around us. We pray God i need this thing in an numeric order 1, 2, 3,4 & 5 then we expect God to do it exactly in that way, forgetting that we serve a God who does not follow protocol of man because His ways are higher than mans ways. He may decide to answer tbat prayer in 3,4 & 5 but because we didnt get it in the way we asked or in the quantity we needed we fail to notice the little things.

Keypoint 🔑...

We find it easier to be thankful for the big things than the little, because we feel those things are beyond our control. We feel the little ones are things within our control & ability, we can get it at anytime when we want too, its as easy as snapping our finger, just like buyin a new pen, getting a new shoe or clothes, or money to pay the little bills all these things we feel are within our ability. So when God makes provides these things, we fail to acknowledge the blessings. We only notice the little like, buying a new car, healing, massive wealth etc.

  • Luke 16:10 KJV

  • He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

When we come across this passage, we only relate it to our tithes & offerings. But remember Thanksgiving is also part of our offerings. Thanking God for the most little things, shows your appreciation, and a ticket for bigger things. We feel certain things are just too small to thank God for, when we get the big ones we would give God thanks. If we are not thankful about the little, it would also be difficult to thank God for the big ones.

  • #remember...

  • We might feel certain things are too small to be proud of, the amount value you place in the little you have would be the same way the outside world would view it.

#value the little you have and thank God
