God's Eternal Perspective

God's Eternal Perspective

I will make you into a great nation,
I will bless you,
I will make your name great,
and you will be a blessing.—Genesis 12:2


Big assignments require big characters. God will give you a
responsibility in proportion to the size of your character. In Bible times, a
person's name represented his character; to know someone's name was to
know what the person was like. That's why God changed the name of some
when He transformed their character. For example, the Lord wanted to
bless all the nations of the earth through Abram, yet Abram's character was
too weak for such a great task. God said He would make Abram's name
great so that He could make him a blessing to future generations. Then
over the next twenty-five years, God developed Abraham's character to
match the name He had given him.

God sees your life from His eternal perspective. He will take
whatever time is necessary to grow your character to match His assignment for
you. If you have not received a divine commission lately, it may be
that your character needs maturing. Are you impatient to begin your work
before God has refined your character? A small character will fail in a
large responsibility every time. Don't be too hasty to get to the work.
Character-building can be long and painful. It took twenty-five years
before God entrusted Abraham with his first son and set in motion the
establishment of the nation of Israel. Yet God was true to His word, and
thousands of years later people continue to be blessed by the account
of Abraham's life and by his descendant, Jesus.

How is God building your character? Do you sense He has a task for
you that will require a far greater man or woman than you presently are?
Will you yield to God as He works in your life to prepare you for your
next assignment?
