BELIEVE IN YOURSELF

November 9, 2014

Have you noticed that human beings find it very easy to stand in the presence of someone far below them in all ramifications and not be afraid, but when we stand in the presence of somebody “higher” than us, we get uncomfortable? Inferiority complex sets in. In school, we tend to keep quiet because we don’t want to say things that would be off-point. People don’t believe in themselves anymore.

Self-limitation is like the order of the day. But I have seen that there may be significant differences between animals and humans, but all human beings have virtually the same inbuilt potentials. When God was going to make humans, He said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” (Gen 1:26) NO DIFFERENCE!

Jesus said in Luke 7:28 that, “For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.” Don’t you get it? You are not an ordinary being. You are not a nonentity, you have greatness deposited in you greater than the one John displayed. You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light? (1 Pet 2:9)

You carry God in you. As a matter of truth you are a god, because if a lion would only birth a lion, it means the child of God is a god. (Psa 82:6) Don’t’ die like ordinary men, believe the power of God on the inside of you because YOU CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS YOU!

Keep shining!
