Be YourselfTuesday, November 3, 2015

Most people think of the movers and shakers, the world-changers and history-makers of society as being someone other than themselves. But the truth is that God has called each one of us to move, shake, and change our world – right where we are.

What does it take to be that kind of person? What kinds of qualities and habits position us for God to be able to use us in that way?

1. Prayer – We can’t lean to our own understanding. We need to hear from God.
2. A Plan – We need to be focused so that we stay on track and eliminate as many distractions as possible.
3. Personal Development – We can never become satisfied with where we’re at. We have to constantly look for ways to grow and improve.
4. Purpose – We have to be living for something big enough to pull us through the tough times.
5. Progress – We can’t be satisfied with just showing up. We have to be results-oriented and desire fruit.
6. Pursuit – We have to be willing to give it everything we’ve got.
7. Possess – We have to determine that we’re not going to quit until we’re living the dream.

Start seeing yourself as a world-changer! Start putting these seven Ps into practice and you’ll be amazed at what God will do through you and your organization!
