Scripture Reading: Judges 4:4, Luke 2:36

3). You Were Created For Impact, Not Fame: Judges 4:4 says; “Now Deborah, a prophet, the wife of Lappidoth, was leading Israel at that time”. And Luke 2:36 also declare; “There was also a prophet, Anna, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage.”

Deborah and Anna were both Prophetesses but Anna commissioned Jesus. It’s not the number of gifts you have, it’s about what God called you to do. Anna was consistent in the one thing she was called to do. Deborah might have been popular but Anna was impactful. Success is doing the right thing and doing it well. Success is fulfilling purpose.

4). God Perfected Your Purpose Before He Started You: A product may be brand new when bought but it has been used; the manufacturer will test the product before packaging it to ensure that everything he said it can do, it will do. It was used, tested and perfected before being packaged.

(Unlike the products that we create as humans, God put in us the free will to decide to do exactly what we are called to do or not. A Tecno phone cannot decide to be Samsung phone after it is manufactured and perfected but human beings can decide to be something/someone else).

(That person you see in the mirror, is the perfect height, tribe, complexion etc for the purpose of God. If you’re trying to be like someone designed for another purpose, that is like a tractor trying to be a sports car because it wants to be fast; that defeats the purpose it was made for).

If God permits any persecution in your life, it is because you have what it takes to go through it. (1st Corinthians 10:13). Why will you say “why me? why me?” if not you, who? When the glory comes, will you not like to be a partaker? Stop wearing your problem on your face and carrying it along like a handbag. Throw that problem away and move on; the promise will meet you on the way!

Ephesians 1:13, God has stamped you; a seal guaranteeing the product. To be continue tomorrow morning by God’s Grace. Good morning and do have a great day, peace.

Prayer point: Holy Spirit, help me to be impactful and grant me the Grace to do the right thing and doing it well in Jesus Christ name. Amen!
