Difference-makers are credited with doing seemingly superhuman feats to win battles as a ruler, diplomat or someone who brings new ideas into the world. Napoleon Bonaparte became Emperor as he conquered most of Europe. Winston Churchill was a master politician and leader, as he led Britain to victory in World War II. Socrates had great intellect and challenged the ancient Greeks to question their way to brilliance. The greatest man in history was “the man Jesus Christ” (1 Timothy 2:5, NIV). Jesus changed the world by doing the will of God the Father through the power of God the Holy Spirit. You might not change the world, but you can change someone else’s world. God’s Word says you can make a difference, “if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you,” because God saved you (Romans 8:11, KJV).

In other words, you have all the ability you need! The list of people are not that great unless they have the Holy Spirit. Whose world could you change? The only thing that is stopping you is not ability, but fear. The good news is God is with you… “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” (Isaiah 41:10, ESV)

Be great, by changing someone’s world.
