For those who truly want to grow, learn, and emulate Jesus in both their personal and professional life, God has bigger plans for them. A person's heart is opened to God's via humility and honesty.

There is only humility and receptivity to Jesus' love, not arrogance or pretension. Those that seek their magnificent God with an altar of purity and serve Him in His Kingdom without shame will experience better benefits from God. We learn more about God's bigger things through a dialogue between Nathaniel and Jesus.
John 1:46–51 describes an exhilarating experience: Seated beneath a fig tree, Nathaniel, raw and cynical, struggles with the problems of existence. Then, without warning, Philip bursts in and declares boldly, "We've discovered Him! The Jesus of Nazareth that Moses described! Nathanael's brows lift in shock, "Nazareth? Can anything positive come out of that? There is a sense of skepticism. Then Nathanael encounters him.
“Here genuinely is an Israelite in with whom there is no deceit,” Jesus adds, penetrating his soul with a profound smile. Nathaniel exclaims, "How do you know me?" in shock. In response, Jesus says, "I saw you." Jesus reached deep into Nathaniel's soul and saw into his heart. Nathaniel's honest and open heart allowed Jesus' love to connect with his deepest wants.
Even in your uncertainties, questions, and private moments beneath the fig tree, Jesus watches you. And He's calling you to follow him and see bigger things. Realizing that Christ sees, knows, and loves you allows you to realize the larger things He has in store for you. With Jesus' life-changing teachings and, ultimately, the culmination of His miracles—Jesus' resurrection—Nathaniel would witness greater things. As you grow in Christlikeness and submit to the lessons you learn, God will undoubtedly wish to teach you more.
Your heavenly father will raise you up to thrive in the fruit of the resurrection life the more you comprehend and experience what it's like to be crucified with you. An obedience-filled, really loving existence will lead to greater things!
