God created each person uniquely and did not create anyone as "junk". Jeremiah initially saw himself as a child, but God said not to say that and instead to agree with what God says about you. It is important to allow God to develop the character within each person according to their stage of development, from embryo to senior adult, and not to compare oneself to others or hold oneself back from what God intends. We should rehearse what God says about us so it becomes like a character trait we practice and master.

3. When we talk
about Change
In must be an inside job

4. We’ve talked about letting go an moving forward
We shared about truth in the inward parts…
Tonight I want to begin to share on our individual
character. And hopefully develop our positive charter
traits and eliminate the negative ones that hinder our
spiritual success.

first come to mind that you exhibit

6. When God created you
He did not create
Junk
Jeremiah 1:5

7. Before I formed thee in
the belly I knew thee
and before thou calmest
out of thy mothers
womb I sanctified thee
and I ordained thee a
prophet unto the
nations
Jeremiah 1:5

8. How do you respond to what
God says about you?
Is it hard for you to agree?
do yu compare yourself to others
do you hold yourself back from moving in what God says
because of doubts?

9. God said, Don’t say
that!

Jeremiah’s perspective of himself
was as a child

11. Stages of Development
embryo
Fetus
Infant
toddler
childhood
teenage/adolescent
young adult
adult
senior adult

12. The mastery of a stage is not
required to advance to the next stage.
When a person successfully
completes a level he/she emerges
from the stage with the
corresponding virtue or character
development for that stage. They
then carry that virtue/characteristic
into the next stage. When a stage is
not completed they enter into the
next stage underdeveloped and carry
that void into the subsequent stage..

13. That is why its important
to allow God to develop in
you what He designed

14. Allow God to develop you…
To catch you up to your right
level…

18. You must rehearse His words in your heart everyday
Until they be formed in you like character…
What you say you are is what you will practice to become…
What you practice you eventually master
