GREATER THINGS / JOHN 14:12

(KJV) John 14:12

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

It is Jesus’ desire that His followers continue to do the works that He did.

1. The “greater things” include spreading His message, leading people to faith in Christ and performing miracles as Jesus did. This is shown throughout the book of Acts (Acts 2:41, 43; 4:33; 5:12) and in Jesus’ declaration in Mark 16:17-18). Through Jesus’ followers, an even greater number of people would come to Christ and receive new life, healing and supernatural help. 
2. The “greater things” would not happen because of the disciples’ own efforts or spirituality. Their work would still be Jesus’ work, done only in the power of the Holy Spirit, whom Jesus would send once He returned to His Father (John 14:16; 16:7; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:24). Jesus’ followers could then pray in His name (John 14:13-14), and God would respond in powerful ways through His Spirit. As a result, the disciples’ works will be “greater” in number and scope, as Christ’s message and power continue to reach people throughout the world.
