04-OCTOBER-2024 - DISCOVERING YOUR POTENTIAL

THE MAIN THEME: WHAT DO I HAVE?

TITLE: DISCOVERING YOUR POTENTIAL

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

Devotional:
Every one of us has been created with unique gifts, talents, and abilities. Sometimes, these potentials are hidden deep within us, waiting to be discovered. It’s like having a treasure buried in your backyard; unless you dig, you’ll never know what’s there. God has already placed within you the seeds of greatness. However, discovering these potentials requires self-awareness, prayer, and sometimes, stepping out of your comfort zone.

A real-life story is that of Thomas Edison, who was labelled as "unfit for school" by his teachers. Despite this, he went on to become one of the greatest inventors in history. Edison discovered his potential not by focusing on what others said about him, but by continuously exploring his interests and passions.

Here are a few reflective questions:

  1. What are some things I am naturally good at?
  2. Have I asked God to help me discover the gifts He has placed within me?
  3. What steps can I take this week to explore a potential talent or interest?

 Let Us Pray:
Dear God, thank You for creating me with unique potentials. Help me to discover the gifts and talents You have placed within me. Give me the courage to explore new things and to see myself through Your eyes. Amen.

Please say these words of affirmation. Say them, mean them, own them and live them.

  • I know what I have
  • I am created by God with unique talents and abilities. 
  • I am committed to discovering the potential He has placed within me.

Have fun exploring your potential today and see you tomorrow.
