Designer Original

One of the things that makes high-fashion designs so expensive is that they are one-of-a-kind creations. A woman who buys a haute couture design knows that she isn’t going to see her dress on any other woman. She knows she is going to have a superbly crafted garment. In many cases, it will be handstitched and custom-tailored to fit her like a soft leather glove fits a hand. She knows that every aspect of the design of her garment has been carefully conceived and constructed. Woman are willing to pay a high price for an original design. And so it should be when we look at our lives. God has put us together in a way that cannot and should not be replicated. He chose every aspect of our personalities, crafted every gift and talent He bestowed on us, and gave special thought to each one of our features and traits. We were handmade by Him in our mother’s womb. He custom-designed us to fit a specific role in His sovereign plan for the ages. You are a designer original. God made you to be one of a kind. Your fingerprint is different from that of anybody else-living or dead. The same goes for your hand print, footprint, voice print, and your entire genetic code. Nobody else had the combination of physical traits you have. Nobody else has the identical set of genes. And even if you did have the exact genetic makeup of another person, you would still be unique. Nobody else has been placed by God in exactly your family, your neighborhood, your church, your group of friends and associates. Nobody else has been put on the earth at precisely this moment in history. Nobody else has had the same experiences you’ve had. Nobody else has the same talents and personality quirks and strengths and weaknesses and abilites and disabilites and skills and trainning and connections. Nobody has ever been just like you. And nobody ever will be just like you. You are a designer original. Have you ever celebrated yourself? Have you ever praised God for the way He made you? If not, today is a good day to begin.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:14

The Parable of the Hidden Treasure

The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he has and bought that field.
Matthew 13:44

God’s Good Idea

You were created in the mind of God before you were conceived in a womb. You were God’s idea. And God is the One who made you for a specific time and place on the earth. You aren’t an accident, a mistake, an error, an incident, or a mishap. You were fashioned and made by Elohim-the Lord God Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. You were meticulously made by the Master. Many people today grew up hearing that they weren’t wanted by their parents. They were told that were the result of a careless moment. If you have been told that, you need to know the truth. You mother and father didn’t create you. God created you. Your mother and father set up a circumstance in which God had the option to make you then or to wait and make you at another moment in time. But it is God who made you. You are His creation. And God doesn’t make mistakes. It doesn’t matter if you were conceived during an act of date rape and born to a welfare mother who had thirteen other children by ten different men God is the One who ordained and authorized your birth. He created you for His purposes and His glory. He didn’t allow you to be stillborn or to die of crib death. He didn’t allow any number of childhood accidents or diseases to take you out. From the instant He had the idea of you, He intended that you should live and participate in His plan and accomplish His purposes. He never took His hand off your life. It doesn’t matter if you were abused as a child. God brought you through that experience alive, and He is the One who kept you from losing your sanity. He is the One who brought you to an understanding of Jesus Christ as your Savior and raised you up so that you could still fulfill His purposes and reflect His glory in spite of evey effort of the enemy to destory you, diminish you defame you, or discourage you. The fact is, if you hadn’t gone through everything you have gone through, you wouldn’t be the person you are today. And God knows that! He has been in the process of creating you, fashioning you, molding you, designing you, refining you, and perfecting you since the moment before the foundations of the earth when He first thought of you! He gave you your own personality, your own abilities, your own spiritual gifts, and your own identity in Christ so that you, and you alone, might praise Him the way you praise, give what you give, minister like you minister and love as you love. Oh, yes! When God thought of you, He had a good idea!
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love.
Ephesians 1:3-4

The Parable of the Mustard Seed

He told them another parable: The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed. which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.
Matthew 13:31-32

I Told the Storm

Even though your winds blow I want you to know You cause no alarm Cause I’m safe in his arms Even though your rain falls I can still make this call; Let there be peace Now I can say go away I command you to move today Because faith I have a new day The sun will shine-I will be okay That’s what I told the storm! I told the storm to pass Storm you can’t last Go away I command you to move today Storm -when God speaks; Storm-you’ve got to cease That’s what I told storm! Wind stop blowing! Flood stop flowing! Lightning stop flashing! Breakers stop dashing! Darkness go away! Clouds move away! That’s what I told the storm! Death can’t shake me! My job can’t make me! Bills can’t break me! Disease can’t take me! Enemies can’t drown me! Cause my God’s surrounds me! That’s what I told the storm!

The Only Way

Everywhere that I go I must tell everyone of the Savior I know. And the things He has done He’s the truth and the life And there’s no other way to the Father, but by Him. Long ago When He knew you’d be out on a limb He gave His life for you, can’t you live yours for Him? He’s the Almightly rock and you won’t have a firm foundation Unless you’re built on Him. You Can’t live without Him. You can’t move without Him. You can’t breathe Without Him. You can’t think about doing one thing without Him. You can’t do without Him ‘Cause there’s no you without Him. Because He’s the only way The only Way. There’s no other name Than the name of Jesus There’s no one Than the one who frees us. There’s no other way No other way What more can I say? He’s the only only way The only way.

The Wise and Foolish Buiders

Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.
Matthew 7:24-27

Your Call

In the theater world, actors and actresses often audition for roles. After that, the person in charge of the production will schedule callbacks. Certain ones who have auditioned will be asked to come back for a second and sometimes a third or fourth audition before they are either given the part or told that someone else has landed it. A person in the entertainment world knows that he or she has arrived as a star when a director or producer calls and offers them a part without an audition. The candidate is being chosen to fill a role that the director believers is absoluetly perfect for that person and nobody else. God doesn’t deal in auditions and callbacks for His children. He has something for you to do that only you can do. No one else can play the part or fill the role or meet the need. Only you. If you just want to be a woman, then you have a lot of competition. But when the call goes out for you, you have no competition. Only you can truly be you. The real you is a composite of what is on the inside and what is on the outside, and what is on the inside is the more important part. Wait for the call that is specifically for you. Don’t respond to a blanket call, or a generic call or a gender call, or wolf-whistle call. Listen for the call that says, I don’t want anybody but you because only you will do. Then respond. Wait for that call before you decide to marry someone. Wait for that call before you commit to a friendship. It’s the same call God puts on your life. He calls you individually-by name, not by number to do a very specific job and to fill a very specific role in His Kingdom. Nobody else will do. He has designed you to meet all the qualifications. He hasn’t created any other person who will fit the bill like you fit the bill. You don’t need to be jealous of or intimidated by anyone else because when God calls for you, you are the only one who can answer. You have no contenders in His sight. You are the star He has in mind for the role He has written just for you.
This is from the Woman Thou art Loosed Holy Bible by T.D. Jakes
Moses said to the Lord, You have been telling me, Lead these people, but your have not let me know whom you will send with me. You have said, I know you by name and you have found favor with me.
Exodus 33:12
