Identifying Your Gift
Core Message
God has given you a specific gift that determines your platform and influence in the world; identifying, developing, and expressing this gift through excellence is essential to fulfilling your divine purpose and advancing God's kingdom.
Key Scripture
A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men. — Proverbs 18:16 (KJV)
3 Key Takeaways
- Your gift is a God-given perception of how you see the world and the problems you are uniquely positioned to solve, and it is distinct from your passion, skills, and anointing.
- Satan deliberately distracts believers with endless concerns to prevent them from identifying their gift, because without recognizing your gift you cannot gain influence, save souls, or step into all God called you to be.
- Identifying your gift requires three steps: seeing the world through your gift rather than your passion, recognizing that your gift highlights problems, and confirming that your gift carries the solutions for those problems.
Prayer Focus
Pray that God will reveal the specific gift He has given you, grant you the courage to develop it with excellence, and protect you from distractions so you can step into your divine platform and influence.
“Your ability to offer something to the world gives the world to you. Somebody who has nothing to give to the world will always be broke, will always suffer even if they are Christian, because they have nothing to offer the world.”
