'How to Deal with Discouragement and Self Doubt' ... with Pastor Kolawole

Purpose, Pursuit and Power (77)

Hebrews 12:1-2 KJV

“.......and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand.....”

Today, we will start a new sub-series under the Pursuit of Purpose. It is: How to Deal with Discouragement and Self Doubt.

In the pursuit of purpose, there is a place for a mentor, an encourager, a compass or navigator to help you stay on track and build in you a compelling passion to win. You must, however, be careful in your choice of a mentor.

If you make a failure your mentor, you are guaranteed to multiply his failure. It is a sure way to become a Mega Failure! You, therefore, must carefully choose a success as a mentor. You may also choose a Mega Success as your mentor.

This can affect you in either of two ways; you can either get so fired up to want to do everything possible to match or exceed him. On the other hand, you may be overwhelmed by his great accomplishments such that you just live in his shadows all your days and never actualize your own potentials

The Bible recognizes the place of mentors. That is why we are enjoined to look onto Jesus. He is our ultimate role model. It is okay to have human role models, but the most profound examples for successful living and purpose fulfillment can only be gotten from Jesus.

Make Him your role model and find yourself a human role model prayerfully. It will help in your pursuit

I celebrate you
