Doing Great Things Through Jesus Christ

By James Katende – You weren’t created to live a small, safe, average life. You were created to do great things — not in your own strength, but through Jesus Christ. Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.” That’s not just a verse — it’s a declaration of divine partnership.

The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead now lives in you. That means you carry resurrection power, miracle-working power, purpose-revealing power. Not to build your name—but to glorify His. Greatness isn’t about being famous; it’s about being faithful. It’s about saying yes when others walk away. It’s about showing up with love, standing with truth, and moving with courage.

Through Jesus, you can overcome what others thought would break you. Through Jesus, you can lead, serve, create, forgive, and rise. He takes ordinary lives and does extraordinary things. Look at Peter, a fisherman. Look at Paul, a persecutor. Look at Mary, a teenage girl. All became great—not because of who they were, but because of who they served.

You were made for more. And through Christ, you will see it. Keep your eyes on Him, and step boldly into every door He opens. There’s no limit to what God can do through a heart fully surrendered to Jesus.
