In God’s mind, we’re number one of all His creation. You’re first class all the way! You must recognize this fact. When you do, you’ll always want to be number one in everything you do. It’s so sad that many young people in our generation have lost the passion to be the best; that desire for excellence.
Decide to excel in your business, academics or whatever you do. If you’re a tailor, make up your mind to be the number one fashion designer in the country. Don’t let your dream stop there because you can go beyond your country; your label can be known all over the world for quality. Do your best until people are proud to wear your label. Soon, it’ll get to a point where they’ll always want your label. If you’re a doctor, be the best around. God isn’t against doctors. He wants them to be able to find new ways of curing diseases so that ministers can move some steps higher. We hear of diseases that have been medically certified as ‘incurable.’ You can be the one to discover the cure to some of these diseases! It’ll take time, diligence and hard work, because these achievements aren’t made at leisure.
To be your very best, you’ll have to draw from God’s investment inside you. The Bible in Ephesians 1:13-14 says, “…ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession...” The Amplified Bible translation of the same Scripture calls the Holy Spirit “…the down payment of our inheritance…” The Holy Spirit is God’s investment in you and He’s there to help you!
