You Are Extraordinary

Do not allow the extraordinary to become common. You are extraordinary. God has made you so. Do NOT let the devil or anyone else tell you different. There is no one else like you and God has a special purpose for you. You are in everyway extraordinary! You are not common but special. Treat yourself that way. Share

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: (1Pe 2:9)

Mediocrity

Beware of mediocrity. Strive to be the best at everything you attempt. A Child of God is not just average. He or she is exceptional and should strife to be so. Share 

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest. -Ec 9:10

Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it. -1 Corinthians 9:24 ESV

Are You Average?

Do you want to fit in? You will if you are average. One of the definitions of average is: lacking special distinction, rank, or status…of no exceptional quality or ability. Paul Harvey said “average is the best of the worst and the worst of the best.” So, I will ask you again, “Do you want to fit in? First Peter tells us that we “are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.” BE EXCEPTIONAL! Average doesn't cut it! Follow @pastorbarr

Who Knows?

Who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this? Esther 4:14.

WHAT grand faith was here! Mordecai was in God's secrets, and was assured that deliverance and enlargement would come to his people from some quarter — if not from Esther, then from some other; but he was extremely anxious that she should not miss the honour of being her people's emancipator. Therefore he suggested that she had come to her high position for this very purpose.

We none of us know, at the first, God's reasons for bringing us into positions of honour and trust. Why is that young girl suddenly made mistress over that household? Why is that youth taken from the ranks of the working-people, and placed over that great City church? Why is that man put forward in his business, so that he is the head of the firm in which he served as an office-boy? All these are parts of the Divine plan. God has brought them to the Kingdom that He may work out through them some great purpose of  salvation. They have the option, however, to serve it or not. They may use their position for themselves, for their own emolument and enjoyment, that they may surround themselves with strong fortifications against misfortune; but in that case they court destruction. Their position and wealth may vanish as suddenly as it came; or ill-health and disaster may incapacitate them.

If, on the other hand, all is used for God, though at the risk of perishing — for it seemed to Esther as though the action to which Mordecai urged her meant that — the issue is blessed. Those that love their lives lose them; those that are prepared to forfeit them keep them. The wheat grain which is buried in the soil bears much fruit. -F. B. Meyer,  Our Daily Homily
