I. INTRODUCTION:

God does not waste resources. All that He has given you were given to you because you need them to fulfill His purpose for your life.

You see, God thought about you long and hard enough and created you intentionally to meet a need here on earth.

No matter the number of things you do so well, your gifts will be abused, misused, and undervalued, if you Fail to discover and develop the very purpose for which you were given those gifts.

One of the major prayers we need to pray, when we discover a particular dimension of God (prevailing gifts) in our lives is: "LORD WHY HAVE YOU GIVEN ME THESE GIFTS"?.

Take note that, while you are good at many things, not all of them will bring value to you.

So, your most dominant gifts are the ones that empower you to shine so easily, if feels you're supremely and divinely qualified to do or express them.

No matter when you're called upon to do it, you're fired up and ready to go. It is inbuilt. You're graced and engineered for it.

I tell you today, THAT IS THE DIMENSION OF GOD IN YOUR LIFE.

II. UNDERSTANDING THIS DIMENSION.

Genesis 2:7 KJV

The word breath in Hebrew is transliterated as "neshamah" which means divine inspiration. This means, There's an inspiration of God in every man that came with them since creation or birth.

There's a dimension of God's inspiration in every man. There's an ability of God inside of you that allows you to perform through direct inspiration from the Spirit of God.

The dimension of God in your life is where God's grace is at its peak! This means if the dimension of God in your life is SPEAKING (like myself), when you speak, people will hear God speak, not you.

If it is music, you will sing and play instruments in such a degree that your audience will not see you or hear you rather, they are connected to the One (God) performing through you.

Let me tell you that, What a man does by grace, no one can do by trying hard.

INTRODUCTION

Time is a finite resource that we all wish we had more of. We often hear people say, "time is money", but in reality, time is much more valuable than money. Time is the one thing that we cannot get back once it's gone. As we go through life, we all have a purpose, but how we use our time is crucial when it comes to fulfilling that purpose. In this post, we will explore the importance of time in deploying your purpose, and how you can make every moment count towards achieving your goals. We will examine the power of time management and productivity, and how these skills can help you to live a more fulfilling life. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a student, or someone who simply wants to make the most out of life, this post will provide you with valuable insights and practical tips to help you reach your full potential.

1. THE VALUE OF TIME IN FULFILLING YOUR PURPOSE

Time is one of the most valuable resources we have. It’s a finite resource that we can never get back once it’s gone. When we think about fulfilling our purpose in life, time becomes even more important. It’s essential to make every moment count and use our time wisely to achieve our goals. Time management is crucial in deploying our purpose. It's important to prioritize our tasks and activities based on their importance and urgency. We need to be aware of how much time we spend on things that don't contribute to our purpose and cut back on them. We should also learn to say "no" to activities that are not aligned with our goals. This way, we prevent wasting time on things that don't matter. Time management helps us to be more productive and efficient, leading us closer to fulfilling our purpose. 

2. HOW TO MANAGE YOUR TIME EFFECTIVELY

Managing your time effectively is essential if you want to deploy your purpose successfully. Without proper time management, it can be difficult to prioritize and accomplish the tasks that matter most. One of the best ways to manage your time is to create a schedule or a to-do list for each day. This will help you stay focused on your tasks and help you avoid feeling overwhelmed. Additionally, it's important to determine which tasks are the most important and prioritize them accordingly. One helpful tip is to delegate tasks that can be done by someone else, freeing up your time to focus on more critical tasks. Another effective time-management technique is to avoid multitasking. It may seem like you are accomplishing more by multitasking, but in reality, it can lead to decreased productivity and increased stress levels. Instead, focus on one task at a time and give it your full attention until it's completed. Finally, be sure to take breaks and allow yourself some downtime to recharge. Taking care of your physical and mental health is crucial for staying productive and achieving your goals. By effectively managing your time, you can ensure that you make every moment count towards deploying your purpose.

Looking at (Isaiah 55:8-9, 11)

God, who sees the end from the beginning, sets our course in accordance with His overall purpose, not our immediate needs. His timing is always better than ours because He sees our whole lives and how they fit into His entire purpose for ourselves and others.

In (Ecclesiastics 3:11) He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they  cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end.

When God created us in time, He set a certain time for the height of our maturity. After that beauty declines, we are ready to move into eternity. This is possible because time is not our permanent home. God placed us within time but made us to be eternal beings.

That beauty has to do with maturation, fulfilment and perfection. That means, God created everything with a purpose and gives every purpose a time that allows it to progress to perfection. He makes everything beautiful in the time He gives to it.

This means, if you fail to carry out your life's purpose within the time frame God has set for it, that purpose will no longer be beautiful in the sight of God and will not also measure up to the desire and intention of God.

FAITH IN GOD

(The First Building Block for Purpose Discovery) 

Every creator or manufacturer begins with purpose. He first establishes his intent before beginning the process of production. God is the source of purpose. Nature is filled with evidence that He determines the purpose of a thing before He creates it. In other words, God never made anything for the fun of it. He never created something just to see if He could make it. Before the creative act ever takes place, God has in His mind the why and the how of what He decides to make. He does everything with and for a purpose.

HENCE, THE CRUCIALITY OF FAITH IN HIM. 

PURSUE PURPOSE WITH ETERNITY IN VIEW

Dr. Sam Ekundayo says, One of the most effective ways to live is to be driven by Eternity. Many people waste their lifetime focusing on visible and temporary things but that is not how God intends for us to live.

Myles Munroe said, Eternity is duration without measure.

Greatness does not answer to desire, it only answer to service. You must serve others with your gifts.

In fact, one the ways God helps us to reach the peak of our performance is by putting us through the test of serving others with our gifts.

Be the first to put your hand up to serve others with your gift.

You must completely seek to be a person of influence not a person of titles. You must seek to lead in your calling. You must be a steward of your gifts to your generation and the ones to come.

For me, I am on a mission. I have an assignment to influence my generation beyond my lifetime. I am on a mission to touch the lives of generations yet unborn. I am on a mission to live fully and die empty!
