Topic: Being Distinct – A Pathway To Destiny [Thursday May 24, 2018]
Scripture: “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 1:5
Thought For The Day: You cannot be your best until you be yourself.
Distinction means being different in nature or quality; it is the peculiarity or uniqueness of a person when compared to others.
It is important to know that to be distinct is to be a potential candidate for destiny fulfilment. You cannot be your best until you be yourself. To flow with the crowd is to be lost in the crowd. Many people have been rendered useless because of the attempt to be like others. So,”they follow the popular trend of the world per time; they live the sinful life of compromise because of the struggle to be like someone else. You can never become who God wants you to be as long as you keep struggling to be like who or what other people are.
To fulfil destiny, you must be distinct. Desire to become the person God wants you to be; be a positive role model, a pacesetter, a front-liner, a history maker and a road pointer.
Refuse to surrender your life to generational influence or societal perversion; it does not matter who does not like what you do, just go on doing it in your own unique way so long as it is the right thing. As long as it is the right thing, you owe nobody no apology for doing it. You do not need anybody’s approval to follow the right path.
Beloved, make up your mind to be different; do not let another person’s negative influence ruin your life.
Remember this”: You cannot be your best until you be yourself.
Assignments:
1. Understand your uniqueness and peculiarity.
2. Decide to do what is right even if others are not doing it.
Prayer: O Lord,”I ask that You help me not to follow and be lost in the crowd. Show me the uniqueness of my life and help me to fulfil it even if it looks unfamiliar to people, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
