Fulfilling Your Potential in Christ
BY HOLY SPIRIT……SPOKEN BY MIN DEL
2 Timothy 4:7-8 (CEV)
7 I have fought well. I have finished the race, and
I have been faithful.
8 So a crown will be given to me for pleasing
the Lord. He judges fairly, and on the day of
judgment he will give a crown to me and to
everyone else who wants him to appear with
power.
Fulfilment
 The achievement of something desired, promised, or predicted.
 A feeling of happiness because you are doing what you intended
to do in life.
Potential
 Having or showing the capacity to develop into something in the
future.
 someone's or something's ability to develop, achieve, or succeed.
Purpose
 The reason for which something is done or created or for which
something exists.
 Something done intentionally not by accident.
Psalm 139:13-16 (NLT)
 13 You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me
together in my mother’s womb. 14 Thank you for making me so
wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know
it. 15 You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was
woven together in the dark of the womb. 16 You saw me before I was
born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was
laid out before a single day had passed.
 It starts with accepting God as our Lord and saviour, and accepting his will
and purpose for our lives.
 Romans 10:9-10 (AMP)
9 because if you acknowledge and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord
[recognizing His power, authority, and majesty as God], and believe in your
heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For with the heart a person believes [in Christ as Saviour] resulting in his
justification [that is, being made righteous—being freed of the guilt of sin and
made acceptable to God]; and with the mouth he acknowledges and confesses
[his faith openly], resulting in and confirming [his] salvation.
Step 1 – Accept God and our Role
Step 1 – Accept God and our Role
Ephesians 1:11 (NLT)
11 Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have
received an inheritance from God,[a] for he chose us in
advance, and he makes everything work out according to His
plan.
Colossians 1:16 (NKJV)
16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and
that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones
or dominions or [a]principalities or [b]powers. All things were
created through Him and for Him.
Step 2 – Cultivate a Relationship with God
Colossians 2:6-7 (AMP)
 6 Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, walk in
[union with] Him [reflecting His character in the things you do
and say—living lives that lead others away from sin], 7 having
been deeply rooted [in Him] and now being continually built
up in Him and [becoming increasingly more] established [a]in
your faith, just as you were taught, and overflowing in it with
gratitude.
 Prayer - Philippians 4:6-7
 Fasting – Ezra 8:23
 Studying the Word – Joshua 1:8
 Church & Fellowship – Acts 2:42/ Matthew 18:19-20/ Hebrews 10:25
Step 2 – Cultivate a Relationship with God
 6 Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, walk in
[union with] Him [reflecting His character in the things you do and
say—living lives that lead others away from sin].
 Are we reflecting God in the things we do and say? Does our lives
lead others away from sin or into sin?
Revelation 3:15-16 (NKJV)
 15 “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could
wish you were cold or hot. 16 So then, because you are lukewarm,
and neither [a]cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.
Step 3 – Actively Walk in God’s will

Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. 15 You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. 16 You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.

Editor's Notes

  1. When we meet God and he asks us what we did with what he gave us, what will be say? How many of us will be able to stand in front of God and say this to HIM? How many of us desire to be able to stand in front of God and confidently say this?
  2. Before God formed us he knew us We we’re intentional creations and not by accident We were created for a purpose….Explain purpose…etc Bin Analogy We were not made to be normal (set Apart)
  3. Accepting a job offer that you never applied for or needed any qualifications for. We were qualified when we were created. Only a general job description….
  4. Accepting God’s plan for us
  5. Prayer Prayer is conversation with God. ‘Prayer is Giving God permission to interfere on earth’ – Dr Myles Munroe Fasting Ezra 8:23 (NLT) 23 So we fasted and earnestly prayed that our God would take care of us, and he heard our prayer. Meditation on the Word Joshua 1:8 8 This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Acts 2:42 They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. The Early church set the blueprint and the example for us to follow. Matthew 18:19-20 “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.  For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” (NIV) Church attendance is not just a “good suggestion”; it is God’s will for believers. Hebrews 10:25 says we should “not [be] giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.” We need the encouragement that church provides (Ecclesiaates 4:9-10) We Cant do it on our own.
  6. Are we reflecting God in the things we do and say? Does our lives lead others away from sin or into sin? We cant be lukewarm, God will spit us out We were called to be Kings and Queens do our lives reflect that – Royal Priesthood verse… God wont allow the fufillment of his purpose to die on your watch. Film anaology
  7. 2 Cor 5 7 Sat nav analogy Ecclestiastes Obedience If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. Deut 28:1 Not Delayed Not Partial - Saul Hebrews 13:21 New Living Translation (NLT) 21 may he equip you with all you need     for doing his will. May he produce in you,[a]     through the power of Jesus Christ, every good thing that is pleasing to him.     All glory to him forever and ever! Amen. 4 There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. 5 There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. 6 There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work. 7 Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. 8 To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, 10 to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues,[a] and to still another the interpretation of tongues.[b] 11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines. Managing them/using them effectively. Some of us spend more time cultivating and nurturing our hair then our own spiritual gifts etc. Give Testimony about me and prophecy…Wisdom Talk about God taking us out of our comfort zone STAND FIRM It wont be easy Trials will come parallel to purpose 1 Corinthians 15:58  Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. Diligent Life is a marathon, we must sustain Emotions not going with diligence God is more than a feeling etc Spiritual highs and Lows…Stamina Diligence is more than how we feel Shine Called to be lights man Salt of the earth…..Salt in everything Do everything to God’s Glory (Col 3:23)
