KEY SCRIPTURE: John 12:24-25” Verily, verily, I say unto you, except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it dies, it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal”.
Our Lord Jesus said that, truly, truly, except a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it abides alone. This statement gives answers to everyone who feels he has no helper, a victim, or are not privileged.
The Lord says that everyone’s prosperity, success, and fulfilment are hidden within himself or herself. Some people are always begging for assistance and recognition. They feel life has not been fair to them. There are even some who have decided to use violence to rob those whom they think have been privileged. Some even label every successful man as a criminal. Please, if you fall into any of these categories, then do take this study very seriously. God never placed your ability to be successful in another person. Others may assist, supply certain things you may be lacking, yet the ability to be great is hidden in the inside of you. Stop looking outside and know that God placed it there.
In the parable of the talents, Jesus taught that everyone was given some talent (Matthew 25:15-28). God never made a dummy. You have something special to offer mankind.
Within every seed are many trees and even a forest. There are countless fruits in that small seed, no matter how insignificant it may look. You are that seed with all the greatness in you.
All you need to do is plant it. Whoever you are, what you need to do is to commit your life to a course. You may start giving a wholehearted service to some people. Whatever you find to do, do it with all diligence (Proverb 10:4). Don’t do it because of what you intend to receive, do it with the primary purpose to bless the recipients of that service. You would always be rewarded for your satisfactory services.
Beloved, nobody was created to be unproductive, so long as the person is not mentally handicapped. Even if you have any deformity of some sort, you can still give your best. Many have proved it. Don’t be limited in your mind. You were born great. Commit yourself to a worthy course by sacrificing your life for that course.
CONFESSION
I was born with great potential. All these are hidden within me. As I sacrifice and dedicate myself to a course, all the hidden potentials go into action to be a blessing unto the world.
THOUGHT: BE A BLESSING AND YOU WOULD BE BLESSED
