By Webster Dictionary, potential is defined as energy possessed by a body by virtue of it’s position relative to
other. Potential energy is energy stored in a body due to position relative to zero gravitational force. God has deposited and stored potentials, energy in each and everyone of us, and it is unique to individuals. We just need to tap in to it by faith. God is delight when we respond in faith
and belief that He can do the impossible through you. God place a call upon everybody to do something beyound ourselves, He is the one that will accomplish it for His glory. Our role is to step up in faith. He will use you and walk with you in your journey of faith.

7) FACE CHALLENGES WITH FAITH
First of all, you cannot come to God if you do not belief in Him, so get to know your God. (Daniel 11:32-33) those who know their Hod shall be strong and do mighty exploit. How do you know that there is God? Turn to bible
Our understand of God’s existence is limited. But through His word, there is prove beyound reasonable doubt that Almighty
God exists (Hebrew 11:6)
The design and complex nature of hid creation make us know that God exists
Here is few attributes to our Mighty God: He is all knowing, all powerful, eternal, infinite in knowledge, only true God, Creator of heaven and EARTH, our Redeemer. His mercy, love and His faithfulness are all impossible to explain; God’s existence is real. No excuse for any one to doubt God.
(Rom. 1:20 & 2:14-15)
2) Pray for direction, plus every body needs mentoring from Godly people and those who are wise to teach us the right and
truth about your potentials
3) you must know the will of God for your life; be fill with the knowledge of God’s will. Study to show yourself approved, get knowledge and get wisdom and understand what you are good at, what ever you are good at, that is your major, others are elective, so do it with all your might, and experts in it. Make sure you do all to the glory of God with fear of God, and be fare to other. God will manifest Himself powerfully to bless you.
Everybody are not going to be pastor, evangelist, teacher, we cannot look to other people to run our own race, it is individual responsibility to know who he is, and why he was created. Gain a perspective of who you are, walk in a manner that please God, you are design in such a way that your
unique purpose, passion and aptitudes can be used for God’s glory. Committee your way to the Lord acknowledge him and he will direct your way (prov. 3:5).
4) There are a lots of God’s promises in the bible that Christians don’t know how to tap or keying in to it. Learn to Claim God’s promises, powerful and it works.
5) Live a purpose driven life: To live a purpose driven life, you must first know who you are and why you are existing. Ask yourself, and ask God to reveal yourself to you. Great people in the bible has also ask similar questions, David ask (2 Samuel 7:18) and (EXODUS 3:11) Moses asked, he even told God that he cannot do that which he asked him to do; he was arguing with God, but go and read how mightily God used him. So, when they eventual
discovered their true identity in God, nothing can top them from running with their God given potential and they reach their higher calling.
So you must know who you are in Christ by understanding who God is.
Ref. Joshua Weidmann)

Apostle Paul is instructing Timothy to to improve himself It also apply to us, whenever we have the privilege, we must improve ourselves by going to school, learn and continue to move up higher. Finally, you must be aware that there will be challenges, we must learn to overcome fear with faith.
(Dr. Davis Jeremiah)
We are above circumstances, we are overcomers, we must let Challenges strengthen our faith.
Ephesian 6:10-18.
“Finally brethren, be strong in the Lord, put on the whole armor of God and ready to fight your fight of faith. Don’t allow anything to pull you barck from achieving your goals Sometimes Challenges may be from the Lord to draw our attention or draw us closer to him, God may want to teach us
something by bringing challenges on our way to give us a sense of purpose don’t let Challenges discourage or pull you off course. Once again we are called to be VICTORIOUS
