“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” — Jeremiah 1:5 NKJV
God knows and has the destiny of each person on this earth, even before we were born. Because of that knowledge in Him, some people, unable to see God’s plan for their lives, rate how far others can go based on what they have, their educational qualifications, and what they’ve learned. But friend, your destiny isn’t in any man’s hands. You are different because you are a child of God, sealed with the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13), and nobody can help but accept it.
When Jeremiah was very young, the Word of the Lord came unto him and said, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah’s father was a Levite. And it was natural for a boy like him to become subject to training to become a priest when he grew up. But God told him that he’s prophet unto the nations. His ordination was not in the natural order.
When God calls you, He calls you to be different. You may have lived in societies where bad things are adopted as ordinary. Once you recognize God’s call upon your life, become conscious that you are different. Follow God, not the traditions of men. He will take you far.
You’re a blessing.
