Whether you are flipping hamburgers at some unknown fast food store in the middle of nowhere, or you’re about to receive an Ivy League College degree, you were fashioned for greatness.
Yes, I believe there is somebody great in each one of us. Somebody who is destined to be a blessing, to impact other lives, to change the world, and to leave a legacy on this planet.
If you have made Jesus the Lord of your life, you are a child of God, and this kind of life is not beyond your reach anymore. You have been marked for success by God Himself, and you are empowered to prosper and succeed.
Just like Joseph in Egypt you have the favor of God on your life, and you are predetermined for victory. He was sold as a slave, but ended up being second only after pharaoh himself in what was then a huge empire. Because God was with him.
And a blessed man or woman of God can do what a whole community, city, or even a nation could not achieve.
Does this thought resemble the picture you had of your future? Are you feeling challenged to step out and set higher goals than you have until now? I hope so. Because you can do it.
There are no limits to what God can do in our lives. If we let Him. Our limitations are self-imposed, and they only exist in our mind. The Bible says: “What a man thinks, so he is.” (Proverbs 23:7)
Whatever thoughts you are feeding your mind with today will determine where you are going to be tomorrow.
