Fan The Flame

I believe that God has planted seeds of greatness on the inside of every one of us. We all have dreams and desires, things we want to accomplish; things we want to see changed. But so many times, life has a way of stealing our dreams. We go through disappointments, face adversity, things don’t turn out as we would like. But God said He wouldn’t stop until He finished what He started in you.

Too often, people just end up settling for less than God’s best. But He doesn’t want us to settle for mediocrity. He wants us to be determined, press on, and pursue the greatness that’s on the inside. We should never let “good enough” be good enough!

The bible says, “For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you...” so I want to encourage you today to stir yourself up and get your fire back. Start speaking God’s promise of victory over your future. If one dream has died, dream another dream!

You also have to put yourself in a positive, faith-filled environment. As much as possible, get around people of excellence. I’ve had to walk away and love some people from a distance because they just weren’t a good influence on my life. It may be awkward at first but you have to learn to protect your God-given destiny against anyone or thing that distracts you from it. Fan the flame that is in you so you can move forward into all God has in store for you!
