On a mild summer day of June 2015, a thought popped into my
mind that the Bible is a record of God and His greatness both in the Old and
New Testament, so why not have a forum in which the present acts of God can be
recorded and shared. After many months
of thoughts and prayers I decided to move ahead despite my feelings of
inadequacy, when God reminded me that His strength is made perfect in weakness.
From Genesis to Revelation, there are many instances in
which people gave glory to God either in Songs or verses. David was very
eloquent in praising God in Psalms. An example is Psalm 145. God is a big fan
of testimonies. He mandated Moses to put in the Ark of Covenant (Testimony) the
Ten Commandments, a pot of manna and Aaron’s rod. The Ark represents the
presence of God and the items placed in it serves as a reminder of works of God
to the Children of Israel. Jesus in Matthew 8: 4 commanded a man healed of
leprosy to go show himself to the priests in the Temple and to render an
offering as required in the Law of Moses as a testimony of his healing. The
beggar at the beautiful gate walked into the temple leaping and praising God
which called everyone’s attention to his healing.
Revelation 12:11 “And they overcame him by means of the
blood of the Lamb and by the utterance of their testimony”. So let’s shout out
our testimonies and declare that God is great and His greatness is
unsearchable.
