Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
Everyone God created has a unique feature and nature that differentiate him or her from another person; our uniqueness is what makes us who we are as an individual, not our similarity. The question we all should ask ourselves every time we wake up is, what makes me different from my siblings, my parents and others? Is it normal for me to be different? The irony of life is that not everyone is able to recognize their uniqueness; our ability to recognize our uniqueness is what sets us on pedestal; that is what makes us different. King Solomon was different from his father king David; David was a warrior, God created him to fit His purpose and plan for him, Solomon on the other hand has a unique gift that set him apart and also help him to silence his enemies. God gave him so much wisdom that scared the enemies of Israel away. Instead of making war against him they will come to consult him with a gift as their consultation fee and he became so wealthy. Solomon's assignment for God was different from his father David; so, trying to package him to fight the way his father fought will be a waste of time. His main assignment was to build the house of God and God gave him everything that he needed to achieve that particular purpose. 1 Kings 5:3 (Thou knowest how David my father could not build a house unto the name of the LORD his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until the LORD put them under the soles of his feet. 4 But now the LORD my God hath given me rest on every side, so that there is neither adversary nor evil occurrence. 5 And, behold, I intend to build a house unto the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spoke unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he shall build an house unto my name). Everyone is created to fit the purpose God has for them; we cannot be a misfit; No, God cannot make a mistake. Everything concerning us including our physical appearance are well calculated and arranged by God. As our faces are different so is our destiny; our destiny lies in our uniqueness. You cannot be me and I cannot be you no matter how much I try to. We all need to learn how to be comfortable with who God has created to be and appreciate Him for His work. He knows why he created you to be a woman or a man, tall or short; David was so pleased with his appearance that he praised God for it. Psalm 139:14( I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well). Most times you may be praying to God for something and if He sees that what you are asking does not fit His purpose for you He will not give it to you. I personally have had such an encounter with Him several times, where He will tell me that i can't have it and went on to explain why. There was a time He told me that my personality and His purpose for me does not fit what i was asking for. It is very important that you discover your uniqueness by yourself so that you can defend it against the adversary. Your uniqueness is your gift and if you allow it to be changed how else do you want to achieve the plan of God for you. The target of Satan is to redesign you to fit his own purpose but if you truly know who you are he will not succeed. I have a soft voice and I am very calm physically. Oftentimes people mistake it for weakness and end up surprised. One day the Lord told me that He created me that way because of my assignment for Him and that I already have a strong personality and it will not be profitable for me to look turf on the outside. He said if i have those combinations that i will scare people away; and guess what? I woke up laughing because truly that is who I am. Please, don´t get me wrong, knowing your unique nature does not mean you should be arrogant and untrainable. We still need to work on the areas where we have deficiency and learn from the best. We don't just grow to know who we are but are trained and moulded by God through the people that he has put around us. For example; David said in the book of (Psalm 139) how he was wonderfully made by God, and God also describes David through Samuel and King Saul's servant how David looks. When David needed to learn how to be a warrior and a King, God sent him to Saul for training but he was wise not to learn the bad habit that Saul has. Moses also was a child of destiny, and God gave him to Pharaoh's daughter in order for him to be trained on how to be a king and a warrior. He went to exile to learn how to be a good shepherd in the house of Jethro, his father in-law. When God wanted to use me He separated me and handed me over to my mentor to raise me; it has been a wonderful journey; I gave him credit because it is not easy to mould an adult. I needed to know many things about living a Christian life since I was not born and raised by a Christian family. Friends, don´t wait for God to tell you, Hey Nene, i am sending you to Saul to be trained, No, it does not always happen that way; He will create a circumstance that will nudge you towards His plan for you and believe me those circumstance hardly look pleasant but with patience and trust in God His perfect will for you will be unveil in due time and then He will tell you i sent you there. When you take a good look at the life of the bible stars; men like David, Joseph, Moses and women like Esther, Ruth and Rahab; their encounters were not a coincidence; it was perfectly arranged by God. Everyone of them has a unique personality that ushers them into their destiny; Esther was extremely beautiful and courteous; Ruth was loyal, obedient, caring and a lover of God's people; Rahab even though was a prostitute but she has a heart for God and is hospitable. Even though they all have a unique personality, they have something in common that connects them to God, which is, their genuine love and admiration for God.
Friend, declare boldly who you are: I am not a biological accident, I am perfectly made by God to fit His plan for me; I am a woman/man of destiny; God knows me personally; I am not a misfit, there is a reason why i look do i am and I praise God for who He has made me to be.
The bible says God knows who is truly His; 2 Timothy 2:19(Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let everyone that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity). Which means you need to have the name of Christ attached to yours . If you have been redesigned by the world and the original purpose has been tampered with you need to come to God for restoration by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour. Hurry up by praying this salvation prayer below and receive the seal and be blessed in Jesus name.
Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
NENE ISAH,
