SCRIPTURE: Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. John 14:30.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The best of you comes out when the worst in you gets out of you.
It is an established fact that impurity cages a man’s potential. Purity of life on the other hand, is a trigger for the release of potentials.
We can see this fact demonstrated in the life of our LORD Jesus Christ.
John 14:30 says,
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
And because the prince of the world could not find any filthiness in Jesus Christ, Jesus manifested different dimensions of graces and gifts. Because of His purity of life, God gave Him graces without measure.
I want you to know this: The best of you comes out when the worst in you gets out of you.
You must come to the point of asking yourself, “Lord, what is that thing in my life that must get out for the best in me to come out? What is the filthiness in me that needs to give way for purity and holiness?”
When you discover it, ask the LORD to purge you so that the potential and grace of God on your life can manifest.
You don’t know what you can do or become until some things that are not meant to be in you get out of you. The worst in you is hindering the best of you. Who you are is fighting who you are meant to become.
For instance, in the case of Jacob, Jacob was who he used to be but Israel was who he was meant to be. The death of Jacob was the birth of Israel. The end of Jacob was the beginning of Israel.
And who was Jacob? Jacob means a cunning man, a supplanter, a swindler, and a cheat. It was when Jacob ended that Israel started.
If the Israel in you must come out, the Jacob in you must end.
The Jacob in you must die for the Israel in you to be born.
Remember this: The best of you comes out when the worst in you gets out of you.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Carefully evaluate your life and deal with any hindrance to the release of your potentials.
- Dissociate yourself from people and things that would corrupt your potentials.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive the grace to separate myself from every form of filthiness. Help me to maximally deploy all my potentials Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
