What other great and awesome things is God going to do amongst us today? This question is really an effect or response to the transformation that occurs when the leadership and laity work together in love for Christ. This is the question of Joshua 4, Ezra 6, Acts 2 and Revelation 21. It is the question voiced by believers who join in local fellowship in service to their King.

We see throughout Scripture (Genesis 1; 12; Matthew 10; 28:16) that humanity, Christ’s creation, is sufficient to carry out His work. God has not created someone or something more meaningful than humans through whom He seeks to do His work and carry out His purpose on this earth. Humans are His principal agents. Foundationally, all the sufficiency of humanity is based upon Christ the human, the Son of man, whose human blood was the perfect offering before the Father (Mark 15).

In short, all that we do in obedience to God is good enough and sufficient to meet God’s desire and quench God’s appetite to receive continued glory and recognition. God does not think, “I wish I could get more praise and honor than what these sinful humans give to me.” After receiving the offering of our lives each day, God is full and satisfied. God did not and does not seek to create a superhuman or human mutation from the best of humanity and wish that subject to praise Him. He simply continues to create more fallible humans. He finds our offerings on His created earth to be good enough to give Him the glory He desires and deserves.
