What is potential? This is an unexposed ability,reserved power,untapped strength, capped capabilities,unused success, dormant gifts,hidden talents and latent power.
Potential is what you can do but haven't done,what you can achieve but haven't achieved,where you can go to but you haven't gone to,what you can imagine but haven't imagined. This potential is the sum total of who you are that you have yet to reveal. Unless you continually try to reach higher,go farther,see over,,you will never discover your full potential.
It is so unfortunate that when you go to the burial ground,many lives both young and old are yet to release their potential. Probably some die at the verge of fulfilling theirs while others could not even reach their goals.
"The abortion of potential is the death of the future " When you do not act on your potential now or you destroy it,your future can never yield good things.
What do you understand by the word " Potential "?
When God created all things,He created them with potentials both plants and animals including we human beings. God has deposited into us potentials that are unseen or unrevealed. I may see the outer part of you but can never see the inward part. You are capable of much more than you are presently thinking, imagining, doing or being.
Gen 1:12 explains and describes how God created plants and seeds each bearing different seeds. So also human beings are created but have different potentials inside of us. What is in you is far different from what is in me. God planted within you the ability to be much more than you are at any moment.
God is the source of all potentials. Everything that was and is was in God and He has all potentials with Him which He distributed to every creature He created.
I want you to know that " the greatest tragedy in life is not death but life,life that fails to fulfill its purpose and potential". When you die,people will only lament and forget while you won't even know anything but it will be disgraceful for a person not to fulfil his purpose while still living on earth.
It is so important for you to go to your source who is God to help you discover your potential and make use of it. When you discover your potential and work it out,even if you die,you will be at peace with yourself that eventually you fulfill your purpose on earth. Many lives have gone without fulfilling their potentials all because they could not go to meet their source for help,some don't even have a close relationship with their source who is God.
You as an individual possess a great treasure which is your potential. It is even better for you not to be born than for you to be born without fulfilling your purposes. Ecclesiastes 6:3-6 even made mention of it....
"3 If a man beget an hundred children, and live many years,so that the days of his years be many,and his soul be not filled with good,and also that he have no burial;I say,that an untimely birth is better than he.
4 For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in darkness,and his name shall be covered with darkness.
5 Moreover he hath not seen the sun,nor known anything: this hath more rest than the other.
6 Yea,though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he seen no good:do not all go to one place?"
Even if a man has hundred children and they were not able to take care of him or give him a proper burial when he dies,it is better not to born because all is life was a waste.
"What lies behind you is history, and what lies before you is future,but those are both tiny matters compared to what lies within you." (Myles Munroe)
I want you to know that every great tree was once a seed,every woman was once a girl,every man was once a boy.
The potential God gave you is not for decoration but must be used to show God'a glory in the world. If you do not use it before you die,it is tagged as "useless" a "waste". God took time to create us and made us in His own image, likeness. He was full of wisdom to have created us and as His own image,be like Him.
Here are some keys to releasing your potential.

You must know your source which is God. Have a cordial relationship with Him,be very close at all time to Him.
You must understand how you are made to function.
Know your purpose. Go to God to reveal your purpose for you, if not,you will only live on earth without fulfilling the plans of God for your life.
You must understand the type of potential God has deposited in you.
You must know and have the right environment that fits you. They say,"evil communication corrupts good manners." If you stay in an environment where people don't even add value to you,it will be difficult for you to fulfill God's plan for your life.
Lastly, work on your potential after God have reveal what type of potential you possess. Go out and exhibit your God given talent.
Remember,"potential is given for the benefits of many not for the benefits of one." Use your potential to change people's life's,draw them to God,not actualizing it indoor where people would think no one exist.

Potential is what you can do but haven't done,what you can achieve but haven't achieved,where you can go to but you haven't gone to,what you can imagine but haven't imagined.
Wow this exceptional post the best I have come across this morning
Thanks
Potential is from God and He deposited into us and require us to make use of it.
People are in the grave without fulfilling their purpose on earth. They died with their potentials
We as human beings must go to our source which is God to reveal our potential to us and make use of efficiently.
When we make use of the potentials God has given to us,He also will be happy that He has created us wonderfully

"Potential is what you can do but haven't done,what you can achieve but haven't achieved,where you can go to but you haven't gone to,what you can imagine but haven't imagined. This potential is the sum total of who you are that you have yet to reveal. "
Potential is something embedded in each and every one of us waiting to be displayed to the world.
Thanks for this message.
Our potentials are like a hidden part of is that takes very special measures and hardwork through Christ to be able to realise, infact many people do not know they have potentials until they strive hard and discover, most importantly God is the key.
This powerful "Remember,"potential is given for the benefits of many not for the benefits of one." Use your potential to change people's life's,draw them to God,not actualizing it indoor where people would think no one exist."
There is a reason for each potential in our life ,let maximize them for a great a course
Work is God's way of revealing your talents, abilities, and capabilities. It helps you to discover the satisfaction of accomplishment and the results of perseverance. Without work you'll never see the results of your potential. Without effort you'll never feel the satisfaction of accomplishment.
Potential is simply that gift that is trapped inside of you which is unique in an absolute fact where which the world is yet to see. That capacity and capability of a spectacular talent not yet manifested because it yet still halfway or because it is needs a proper push factor.
Every one in the world today has this great potential of performing and doing something significant, something that is absolutely unique and outstanding.
Especially the youths the future is determined by their potential or the trap potentials that will be set into motion of the future is in the creativity of the youths.
One thing we should no finally is that when God has endowed you with potential try not to bury it but make effective utilizing of that particular potential.
Releasing this is not that easy, it takes the grace of God for us to be able to release our potentials, and these potential should be positive to our society for this is to avoid chaos around us.
we should let our potentials come alive, God has given everyone a special gift we should ask our heavenly father to give us grace to bring them to manifest.
great post@omoyiwolabsusayo

So let's learn to harness our potential for the glory of God
No matter how educated we are or how intelligent we are Christ will always provide for us all we need in life when we take him as the king of all nation and as the lord if lords.
His plan is to provide for us and his purpose is to bring us closer to him and make us his own.
He has plan for those who are working in his paths and are always doing things according to his word.
You should always uphold to what you believe which is in the paths of the living God and the ways which will always save you from the iniquities of the evil one.
Elijah was a man who stood on the tight track of God.
He the lord made all things through his powers and he has brought us peace and joy through his wonderful works in earth.
It is our duty as his hand made to always do the work which we are made to do always.
He our leader and everything we need he has made everything according to his powers and his glory h has perfected our life with his perfect life as a leader.
You must he ready to loose some earthly things for his power and knowledge is greater
We as individuals must go to our source which is God to uncover our capability to us and make utilization of productively.
the capability of every individual is a blessing that God gives, to be and to give that blessing among his fellowmen, for sharing and to have the capacity to show the significance of life, yet most importantly to laud God constantly
Thank you for sharing this post..it make me thinks now ,that me too has potential,..that God created us with our unique talent and potential,all I had to do now is to discover it
Exactly,discovering your potentials will make you know what is in you that you can do.
This is thought-provoking:
Like you said, our potentials must be honed so as to able us to do exploit in our world and basically, to bring men to God.
Thanks for sharing @omoyiwolabusayo. Kind regards.
There is a great wealth of potential within you. But you must decide if you will deprive the world or bless the world with those gifts that are locked away inside you.
If you decide that you do want to release your potential, the next step is to understand the principles God has established for unlocking potential. Miles Munroe, a minister in the Bahamas, has identified 10 keys to unlocking potential:
You must establish a relationship with God the source of your potential.
You must understand how God made you to function: by faith and by love.
You must know your purpose in life (your potential was given forjust that).
You must identify the resources that
help unlock your potential.
Potential is from God and He saved into us and expect us to make utilization of it.
Individuals are in the grave without satisfying their motivation on earth. They passed on with their possibilities
We as people must go to our source which is God to uncover our capability to us and make utilization of proficiently.
When we make utilization of the possibilities God has given to us,He likewise will be upbeat that He has made us magnificently
Every individual has a potential God has planted in us, we just need to discover it and the only way we can do that is to seek the planter. He is the only one that can help us discover our full potential
Thank you for sharing this post..it make me thinks now ,that me too has potential,..that God created us with our unique talent and potential,all I had to do now is to discover it
the potential of each human being is a gift that God gives, to be and to give that gift among his fellowmen, for sharing and to be able to demonstrate the greatness of life, but above all to praise God at all times
We as people must go to our source which is God to reveal our ability to us and make usage of profitably.
