The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin: ……………………………. Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Jeremiah 1:1-5
One thing we need to know is that the Bible says that God is no respecter of persons. The way He treats one is the way He will treat the other. He will treat you according to his word and according to His love for you. It is how we respond to the word and love that matters.
From time to time people have come out to say God has favorites and they are His favorite. But in truth we are all God’s favorite and what matters is the way we react to God. Whenever we long for and long after God and the things of God, He would come closer to us and we become His favorite. The reason why David was a favorite of God was because of the relationship he had with God.
Let us know that we are not a mistake no matter the circumstances of our birth. We are a deliberate creation of God, and He has created us with a lot of potential. God’s word says ye are God.
A lot of us have potentials but very few of us fulfil our potentials. There are many reasons why we do not fulfil our potential
- Ignorance of who we are
- Fear and anxiety
- Laziness
- Prevention by others
- Not been born again. Been born again is going back to the manufacturer who formed us so that we can become a new creature.
Questions that we ask God so we can fulfill our potential
- Who am I?
- What am supposed to do or what am I supposed to become?
- What did you form me for?
A lot of people cannot fulfill their potential because of their ignorance of who they are and who they are in Christ. Some others don’t even know how to fulfill their potential.
How can you fulfill your potential?
- From what you were told. From the things that people tell you and the things people say about you. You can be told or prophesied your potential. When you are born find out the meaning of your name and why your parents gave you your name.
- From what you desire or we are passionate about.
- From what you have been born or gifted to do. A lot of us have been born and gifted to do certain things.
- Through the dawn of realization or the season and a time of reawakening. We have been born as gods but we might die of disappointment until we have that dawning and realization that we were born for more and to do more. I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. Psalm 82:6
- Through the word of God. Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Isaiah 3:10
