The Desire to be Great

Today as we continue our series looking at the desires of every heart, we’re going to take time to recognize and satisfy our desire to be great. The desire to be great within the heart of man has produced tremendous and terrible things. It’s produced peace and war, advancement and destruction. And as we look at this desire today, I pray that God reveals the purity and power of it as well as his plans to satisfy it moment by moment, day by day. Our Scripture for today comes from 1 Corinthians 2:9 , and today's worship is I Surrender by Hillsong Worship. This Christmas, find the peace God has waiting for you.
