How can I be great in the sight of the Lord?

Answered in 1 source

To be great in the sight of the Lord, one must have a heart consecrated to Christ and trust Him alone.

Being great in the sight of the Lord involves a heart that is consecrated and trusting in Jesus Christ as both Savior and Lord. This reflects the new heart received through the Holy Spirit, as emphasized in Luke 1:15, where John the Baptist is said to be filled with the Holy Spirit from birth. Moreover, greatness is demonstrated through active faith—believing in Christ and His work on the cross, which brings salvation and righteousness. It also involves being a witness for Christ, proclaiming the Gospel and the truth of His redemptive work in our lives. True greatness results from acknowledging Christ as the source of all goodness.
