"...KEYS TO RELEASING YOUR POTENTIAL:
Building potential into a product does not necessarily mean that potential will be revealed. Many of us have appliances in our homes that are capable of much more than we require of them. Perhaps you use your oven to bake but not broil because you don't know how to use the broiler. Or maybe you have a vacuum cleaner that has the ability to clean up water as well as dirt, but you haven't used that feature because you aren't aware that the manufacturer built that capability into the machine. God has built many abilities into men and women. Too often, however, we fail to use that potential because we don't understand either the magnitude of our capabilities or the requirements that are necessary to unleash our power. The following are keys to the effective release of wealth of your potential.
1] YOU MUST KNOW YOUR SOURCE - Every product you purchase includes a certain degree of guarantee based on a relationship with the one from whom you bought the product. Thus, if you want to buy a car, you will first research the integrity of the various car manufacturers and the quality of their cars. Then you will look for an authorized dealer in your area who will explain and follow the manufacturer's specifications. God is your manufacturer. If you want to know your potential, you must go to him. God, through His authorized dealer, the Holy Spirit is the only One who can reveal to you the qualities and characteristics of your potential and the precautions you must heed to avoid wasting or abusing your abilities. Unless you get to know your Source and establish a relationship with Him through His Son, Jesus Christ, you have no hope of releasing your potential. Knowing God is the foundational key upon which all the other keys rest.
2] YOU MUST UNDERSTAND HOW YOU WERE DESIGNED TO FUNCTION - Every manufacturer designs his product with certain features and specifications. Then he gives you an instruction book that clarifies the definitions of the features so you can become familiar with both the parts of the equipment and their functions. Thus, a car manufacturer describes in the manual how the engine, the brakes, the windshield wipers, etc are supposed to operate, because he knows that you will not get optimum performance from the car unless you understand how the various parts of the car were intended to work. God designed you with intricate features and capabilities. If you fail to learn from God how you were designed to function, you are on your way to short-circuiting. You will never release your potential unless you learn to function by faith according to God's specifications.
3] YOU MUST KNOW YOUR PURPOSE - When a manufacturer proposes a new product, he first clarifies the purpose of the product. Then he designs the features to accomplish his intent. Therefore, a car manufacturer will first decide whether the vehicle is to be a race car, a delivery van, or a family car. Once the vehicle's purpose has been established, the engineer will incorporate various features to meet that purpose. Before you were born, God had a plan and a purpose for your life. Then in accordance with that plan, He gave you special abilities and aptitudes to enable you to accomplish everything that He intended. If you are going to release your potential, you must first discover God's plan for your life. Knowing and living within God's purpose is the difference between using and abusing the gifts and capabilities God
built into you..."
