Steps to Greatness

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Everyone born of God is destined for greatness. The Bible is replete with regular people who received incredible greatness based on their relationship with God. Abraham became great and the father of nations on account of his relationship with God. King David attained greatness from being committed and faithful to God. King Solomon surrendered it all to God and was the greatest King of his time.

Even in history and contemporary times, we daily read about regular people like you and I who became great because God made them great. That same God, Jehovah, the El-Shaddai to whom all power belong is still in the business of making people great and you can be the next in line for divine greatness. Some of the ways in which you can become great by the help of God include but are not limited to:

Be careful what you watch, what you listen to and what you read as all these have a way of impacting mental processes. If you spend time reading about, listening to or watching videos on impossibilities, chances are you will think that there are always impossibilities on every step of the way. So like the lazy man described in the book of Proverbs, you will always see fierce lions in the streets and refuse to take the bull by the horn.
Be careful who you associate with and believe. Run away from anyone who does not have a good Christian background especially those who water down your faith in God and His word.
Yield to the Holy Spirit. Respond to the call of God for your life. God will give you the corresponding anointing to succeed in whatever He calls you to. You can move and do that which God calls you to. Every call of God comes with promotion from your present level to the heights God ordained for you from the foundation of the world. However, you cannot remain at the same place where God spoke to you. Move to that ministry, business, career, job, etc. Consecrate yourself and keep moving.

God chooses by grace. Your choice by God is the choice of grace. Start whatever God calls you to and see God move. However, separate yourself to God for a while before launching out. Fruitfulness will come knocking on your door. You will CERTAINLY finish strong this in Jesus mighty name.

Determine and be sure of what you want. For instance, what kind of ministry do you want? What kind of business do you intend to operate and own? You should choose your ministry, business, career or job according to your gifts. It is very dangerous to operate outside of your gifts because your gifts are actually your divinely endowed strengths. Therefore, choose whatever you want to do on the basis of your gifts.

Manifest by saying what God wants you to say at whatever platforms He makes available to you. You can always single yourself out of a crowd, a multitude. Be the first to speak, ask questions, comments but make sure they are intelligent questions and comments so that people will remember you for making positive contributions to their lives.

Never underestimate your enemy. Only God can overpower your enemy. Therefore, allow God to fight for you.

Some of the billionaires you hear about are very hardworking people. Do away with sleep and work smart and hard. The spirit of sleep shortchanges you.

Please, impress God rather than men. When you always impress God, your greatness is assured but when you choose to impress men, you will end up like King Saul of Israel who lost the throne to David.

God assesses people on the basis of the motives. Wrong motives delay the blessings of God. Right motive reflects in good thoughts and expectations about yourself and people around you.

The responsible use of the Internet could be your USP, your competitive advantage over your competition; that is if you actually have any. Become a global resource using the Internet.
