Did you know you are gifted to create spiritual havoc in your space, so why are you wasting time? Why are you trying to remain comfortable, staying away from your calling? Why are you distracted and rejecting a gift given to you freely that money could never buy? God has called you to greatness and badass-ism in Christ; why are you staying away from the inevitable power within. 

Is it too much for you? Are you still concerned with people’s thoughts towards you—what they will say and so you keep yourself locked away, smalled up, holed up, and forsaken, then say it is someone else or something else?

Are your thoughts—I am not pretty, not confident, not intelligent, not intellectual, or rich? Or, is it, I don’t have the right car, or furnishings, or home for that matter. Hold up, wait a minute, does your gift and the fact that you have something to say or do, dependent on these things? Oh no, it is not. Do not allow stigmas, and pretension to hold you back, girlfriend.

When you are great, you are just that, and nothing should hold you back from showing off and showing out and up for that person who needs you.

Here are two verses that demonstrate that we have no time to shrink; we have enough time to shine in our giftings, going about God’s work with passion and excellence purposefully. 

“I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.”

Jeremiah 1:5 NLT.

…Even before we were born, God planned in advance our destiny and the good works we would do to fulfill it!

Ephesians 2:10

So listen now, 

For God will never give you the spirit of fear, but the Holy Spirit who gives you mighty power, love, and self-control. 2 Timothy 1:7

 Everything you see happening in your life has a spiritual inference, or let us say side. If you feel limited or incapable in an area you feel aligned to, understand that something is holding you back from performing in that area. Why? It is because that is where you will be most impactful, and that is the area that leads you to purpose, and you must fight through the feeling of inadequacy. Think about it, are you fearful of public speaking? Rest assured, if you rise above the fear, you will be very impactful. Have you ever mustered the courage and spoken publicly, am I right? Were you of significant impact? Well, there you have it—what are you going to do? Keep your mouth closed? Seek the opportunities to speak more, better yet, create the opportunity, start a youtube channel, go live, make your mind up. Face the fear and do it.

Your purpose and gifting are spiritual—and are not effected by your strength, understand this, and keep it in mind always, so you constantly seek the power of the one who placed it within you, that is God, your father. Then watch and see what happens when you remove your control—your thoughts will mainly be, did I do that?

God has called you to greatness, not for you but His Glory and His kingdom.

Go and be great!
